According to Benjamin Franklin, “The investment in knowledge pays the best interest.” And as more employers are learning, helping their workforce attain new knowledge is perhaps an even better investment. Tuition-assistance benefits are trending across industries, but at financial services firm Andersen, they’re taking it one step further: A fully-funded MBA.
According to education.org, the current average debt of a Master’s degree holder is $80,494, over $60,000 of which is from school alone. Coupled with the financial uncertainty of today’s economy and the cost of housing, an investment of this size feels out of reach for many, regardless of the payoff. Andersen’s Enterprise MBA program, in collaboration with the University of San Francisco, will help offset those costs and is available to the company’s global workforce of 13,000 employees.
