Fortune 1000 companies are spending more than $11 billion on T.A.P. (Tuition Assistance Programs)1. Despite the fact that this high figure reflects companies’ investments in education, tuition assistance programs are still treated as an employee benefit rather than a strategic investment in the company’s intellectual capital that can be managed and measured.
When tuition assistance programs are properly aligned with business and talent strategies, companies can benefit from a more educated workforce. Tuition assistance programs can also serve as an important recruiting tool attract top talent, enhancing employee loyalty and reducing turnover. Through engaged discussions, our Strategic and Academic Alliance team will work closely with you to assess your company’s learning needs and propose a strategic solution that will help you accomplish your education objectives.
