Amazon Offers Tuition Payment in Nursing, Aircraft Mechanics
Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) will offer pre-paid tuition for some employees to study areas such as aircraft mechanics, nursing and computer-aided design, stepping up efforts to retain workers ahead of the holiday shopping season.
Amazon will pay as much as 95 percent of the costs for workers who have been with the Internet retailer as little as three years, the Seattle-based company said today in a post on its website.
