A lot of companies out there value higher education, even if what you're going after may not be related to the field you work in. However, due to the current economy state, many companies cut back on such offering. Companies such as Boeing were notoriously generously in this department. They would pay for your school regardless of the price, and in return I believe you had to work 2 years after your graduation for them. Nowadays, many firms have a cap of some sort, ie $10k a year or your continued study must relate to your line of work some how. And of course this is only for graduate programs. You need a BS/BA first to land the job with the aforementioned benefit.Originally Posted by ricky409

Gotta get employed first though
i hear about this alot. how do you find programs like this?
The offering should be listed under benefits when you apply. It's one of the few things a company can utilize to set itself apart from its competitors and retain the valued employee for the long run.
You must perform in a God like manner to obtain even a 5% yearly raise. An educated person with enough experience will not stick around a firm for long at this rate. He/she will work at that firm for a couple of years and make the jump to a new company, which will generally be a 20-30% pay increase...a lot more than the measly 5%/year at best. This is exactly what I did. After I had the experience at my first employer, I didn't get a good enough raise, and I left for a significantly higher pay elsewhere. Tthe old company lost an employee as a direct cost and indirectly will have to spend money to train a new person to replace me in the mean time. Offering of this is designed to combat the employees from leaving, especially if he/she is interested in going back to school.
