Qualtrics is in for the long run in Provo! Today, they announced that they are doubling the size of their Provo co-headquarters and will be adding more than 1,000 new jobs in the region over the next five years! Qualtrics also announced they are launching an on-site childcare facility that will include a tech-infused curriculum offering age-appropriate science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education.
Qualtrics has been a longtime leader of Provo's tech scene and I'm ecstatic for their growth. I couldn’t be more excited that they will continue to invest in Provo!
The new 40,000 square foot daycare, named Cloud Village, will be located across the street from the expanded co-headquarters allowing parents to spend time with their children, at their convenience, throughout the day. It will include three floors of technology-infused learning centers for children ages 3 months to 5 years. Emerging technology used at the daycare will transform the way teachers develop learning paths for each child. This technology includes age-appropriate coding camps for the 5 year olds, interactive smart boards where teachers can help children learn basic computing skills with hands-on participation, digital creation tools that unlock creative and critical thinking skills, virtual storytelling to teach kids about cultures from around the world, and many others. The use of innovative technology and a STEM-focused curriculum will be taught alongside character values consistent with Qualtrics' company values.
Qualtrics' on-site daycare and office expansion will more than double the size of their current campus, located near the mouth of Provo Canyon. The company will add over 150,000 square feet of office space and an additional 40,000 square feet for the on-site daycare, bringing the total size of the campus to 355,000 square feet—a significant upgrade from the Provo, Utah basement where the company started in 2002. Opening in spring 2021, the new expansion will include a three story, outdoor terrace equipped with conference areas, meeting spaces, and views of the 6-acre gardens, as well as two new parking structures.
