Why Employers Should Care
Traditional tuition reimbursement creates barriers - employees who can't afford upfront costs are excluded from your educational benefits program.
Manual compliance review is time-intensive and error-prone, creating administrative headaches while increasing risk of fraud and policy violations.
Manual processes increase risk of paying for non-compliant courses while giving you limited visibility into program utilization and employee educational outcomes.
