June 26 2017 - 10:00AM
UPS (NYSE:UPS) today announced the expansion of its tuition
assistance program in five states including Wisconsin. The “Earn
and Learn” program pays up to $5,250 per year for tuition for any
part-time package handler in every operating facility in the state.
Previously, the program was only available in select locations and
on select shifts. UPS operates sorting and delivery facilities in
the following Wisconsin cities:
• Baldwin |
• Middleton |
• Dodgeville |
• Oak Creek |
• Eau Claire |
• Oshkosh |
• Elm Grove |
• Rhinelander |
• Green Bay |
• Rice Lake |
• Janesville |
• Sheboygan |
• La Crosse |
• Stevens Point |
• Lake Delton |
• Sturtevant |
• Madison |
• Watertown |
• Marinette |
• Wausau |
Eligibility in the program begins on the first day of
employment, and all UPS locations in the state are currently hiring
for part-time package handling positions. UPS operating facilities
offer several shifts, from early morning to late night time-frames,
so students can easily find one that works for their class
schedule. The program is also expanding in Minnesota, Nebraska and
North and South Dakota.
The UPS Earn and Learn program has distributed over $200 million
since its inception in 1999. Many of UPS’s full-time management,
drivers and even senior leaders began their careers at the company
as part-time package handlers. UPS CEO David Abney started with the
company 42 years ago loading trucks while attending college.
