Employer Tuition Reimbursement

Some employers reimburse employees for part or all of their tuition for online programs. Be sure to ask your employer if this benefit is available to you — it’s your opportunity to receive assistance with a significant portion of your tuition costs.

By advancing your education, you can become more efficient and effective in your current role.

Tuition reimbursement programs make employees feel valued while promoting company loyalty and retention.

Supporting advanced education helps current employees qualify for promotions, rather than spending time and money on outside recruiting.
