Skillshare has raised $66 million in new funding led by OMERS Growth Equity. Previous investors Union Square Ventures, Amasia, Burda Principal Investments and Spero Ventures also participated.

Skillshare is an online learning community with thousands of classes in design, business, technology and more. Founded in 2010, the Skillshare community is comprised of over 5 million students and thousands of teachers, from 100+ countries, who come to the open-platform to learn cutting-edge skills, network with peers and discover new opportunities. Students can enroll in hundreds of free classes, or unlock unlimited access to the full class catalog by upgrading to Premium for a low, monthly rate. Skillshare teachers include both industry leaders (such as author and speaker Simon Sinek and notable designer Aaron Draplin) and talented practitioners who have built a following and a significant passive income stream through the site.
