UPS Tuition Assistance Program

To assist employees in furthering their educational development, we are proud to offer the UPS Tuition Assistance Program (TAP). An ongoing effort to recruit, retrain and develop qualified individuals, TAP ensures that UPS will continue to grow as a company, prosper as a business and excel as a global service.

In the United States, tuition assistance is available to:

  • Full-time non-union employees
  • Part-time management employees
  • Part-time union employees

In 2010, we provided $24 million in tuition support to approximately 14,000 students. Since the program began in 1999, we have invested $187 million in tuition assistance for approximately 113,000 college students.

UPS also invests about $300 million a year on training programs to help employees further their careers within the company.
