Individual

Tuition Reimbursement Implementation Report


Review

the following scenario:

 

Your company has had a very profitable year and is looking to expand their employee benefits. As an employee in the benefits department, you have been asked to prepare a report to persuade your company administrators that adding tuition reimbursement for the bachelor’s degrees in business and communication benefits the company. Because the company has already approved a budget for this expansion, financial costs are not a concern.

a 1,050- to 1,200-word paper that explains the benefits to the company. Include the following:

 

·
        
New professional opportunities you believe this degree affords to employees

·
        
Types of careers people with the degree often have

·
        
Earning potential of people who have the degree

·
        
Benefits to the company, like increased retention

Include
at least three scholarly research resources into the paper.

Format
your paper consistent with
APA guidelines.

Post
your paper as an attachment.
