LAST MONTH LOWE’S announced a new education program giving 300,000+ eligible full-time and part-time associates access to 100% debt-free programs.
In partnership with the Guild education platform, Lowe’s is offering 50+ free academic programs across 23 universities and learning providers in Guild’s Learning Marketplace, including Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs).
The new Lowe’s education program offers debt-free tuition assistance to associates seeking to earn undergraduate certificates or degrees or enroll in English language learning, high school completion or college prep programs.
Programs include flexible classes that fit different schedules, fully covered textbooks and course fees, and one- on-one support from Guild coaches.
Additionally, Lowe’s still offers a long-standing tuition reimbursement program, which reimburses associates up to US$2,500 annually in education expenses.
Lowe’s also continues to offer Track to the Trades, a company-funded pre-apprentice certificate program to help up to 4,000 part-time and full-time associates pursue careers in the skilled trades each year.
Lowe’s covers 100% of tuition for Track to the Trade diplomas in HVAC, solar, commercial HVAC, appliance repair, multi-family facilities management, electrical and plumbing.
