St. Charles Community College welcomes Amazon employees to start or continue their college education through participation in the company's Career Choice program.
All SCC classes and programs are now available to students in Amazon's Career Choice program, which covers tuition for its hourly employees. SCC joined the program in December 2020.
Beginning in March, Amazon's Career Choice program expanded in the U.S. to pay full college tuition for employees at hundreds of education partners across the country. In addition to funding associate and bachelor's degrees, Amazon's Career Choice program also funds high school completion, GEDs, and ESL proficiency certifications. Amazon launched this program originally in 2012.
“We welcome all who want to get a college education, and we are proud to partner with Amazon for this program, which helps our community members to pursue their education and career goals,” said Holly Martin, Ph.D., SCC Vice President for Academic and Student Affairs.
SCC offers pathways in Arts & Humanities, Education, Math & Science, Business, Manufacturing & Industry, Social & Behavioral Science, Computers & Technology, and Nursing, Allied Health & Wellness.
