This growth highlights the vital role of Eastern Idaho’s four institutions of higher education — BYU-Idaho, Idaho State University, College of Eastern Idaho, and University of Idaho–Idaho Falls. Together, they provide a strong pipeline of well-educated, skilled graduates who are helping to power our regional businesses and strengthen the economy.

At REDI, we are proud to collaborate with these institutions as we continue building a workforce that supports innovation, attracts new investment, and drives opportunity across our 16-county region.
