Deferred Tuition Reimbursement Program
Does your company currently offer or would like to offer an employee benefit that includes paying for college courses? Trident Technical College can help you streamline the process with our Deferred Tuition Reimbursement (DTR) Program.
Trident Tech’s DTR program supports corporate partners who fund tuition for their employees through reimbursement. With DTR, payment of an employee’s tuition is deferred until the end of each semester. This allows employees to enroll in courses at Trident Tech without incurring any upfront costs for tuition.
How It Works
- Employer agrees to participate in Employee Sponsored Billing through TTC’s Deferred Tuition Reimbursement Program.
- Employee contacts the company’s Human Resources office and completes any required employer forms for participation.
- Employee registers for classes and submits the TTC Employee Sponsored Billing Agreement to TTC’s Division of Apprenticeships and Employer Partnerships before the payment deadline.
- Tuition for employees is invoiced to the corporate partner at the end of the semester.
Employer/Employee Benefits
- Encourages employees to continue their education without the burden of upfront college expenses.
- Attracts new, highly-motivated employees.
- Retains good employees longer and allows them to upskill in their careers.
- Cultivates smarter, happier and more engaged team members.
