"We are thrilled to be recognized by Cigna for our efforts to

kinds of benefits employees want, where we can differentiate
ourselves and be an employer of choice. I think this recognition
speaks to those efforts."

culture of health and wellness," said Vicki
Clements, vice president of sales and client management for
Cigna. "Zovio was selected by a multi-departmental Cigna committee
based on its excellence in achieving the core components of its

included a review of the program's goals, implementation, and
incentives, as well as leadership engagement and employee
participation. We're honored to be Zovio's health benefits partner
and look forward to continuing our work together to help build
healthier communities."
