We partner with businesses to help provide competitive benefits packages to their employees.
Utilizing employee tuition programs is a fantastic opportunity for employees to enhance their skills and career growth. With employer-paid tuition programs, employees can upskill and reskill, becoming more competent and productive. When employees take advantage of employer-paid tuition programs, they not only contribute to a more competent workforce but also build a sense of confidence in their professional growth within their company. Overall, an employee tuition program is a win-win for both employees and your employers.
Most employer-paid tuition programs require employees to notify their Human Resource (HR) department or complete an internal registration. If your employer is on the list below, see how you can take advantage of these benefits. Once your application is submitted and your employer鈥檚 HR office has verified your information, you can enroll in classes at 海角社区.

For every course paid in full, both in-class or online, students will receive a tuition waiver for 1 additional course of equal or lesser credit value for that semester.

This includes county administration, veterans鈥� affairs, health and human services, child welfare, parks, judicial and law enforcement (e.g. Montgomery County Sheriff鈥檚 Office, however unfortunately municipal police departments are entities of municipalities, not the county).
Classes must be taken during the same semester. Classes may be taken by separate individuals provided they meet the above relationship guidelines.
