Tethys is not just another online freelance marketplace, it is the platform where students and businesses are re-inventing apprenticeship collaboratively and addressing the college education funding in the process.
Nurturing a long- term relationship on-line!
Wouldn't you want every student recruit to already have the experience and the soft skills that match your needs and be fully productive on day one?
Working with the right tools!
What if you could graduate with a fraction of the student debt you would otherwise accumulate while working with businesses in your field of studies?
Running and funding student businesses!
Can I find a place that will allow me to stay a full time student, run my very own services business during my free time, develop the experience that I will need when I graduate and explore new opportunities all at the same time?
Internship
Businesses can post internship listings and get students to express interest for them. In turn, students can browse and find various opportunities available or review past activities and the ratings that were submitted by participants.
Community
It is the underlying social network that enables collaboration on Tethys. It allows participants to develop content, create connections, and participate to apprenticeship activities in private groups organized by various businesses.
Apprenticeship

Academy
It provides an eLearning market place. Participants can either create and sell learning content, or consume as a student. Businesses can use the eLearning to create content for students in order to further develop their skills along a define apprenticeship path.
Software Access
Tethys offers access to a growing list of commercial software for students to be used in "for profit" activities. Businesses can also use our managed Amazon application streaming services to allow students access to software licenses already owned. Contact us for more info.
