Pluralsight Expands Again, Buys Code School

Salt Lake City-based Pluralsight, the online training and education startup backed by Insight partners, has acquired fellow education startup Code School, in a deal worth $36M, according to reports. The deal is at least the third acquisition for Pluralsight, which has been in an acquisitive move since a big, $135M investment in the company back in August. Pluralsight has been on a massive acquisition tear in the past year or so, having recently acquired such companies as Smarterer, Digital-Tutors, Tekpub, and TrainSignal, all to expand the company's reach in online software and IT training areas.
