Miller-Motte College Kicks Off New Initiative that Helps Businesses Offer Employees an Avenue to Low Cost College Tuition

This New Employee Benefit Is of No Cost to Companies Participating in Miller-Motte's Preferred Employer
Partnership Program

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., April 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Employers looking to boost employee morale, expand the value of their benefits packages and increase company loyalty can now provide their employees an opportunity to further their education thanks to a low-cost college tuition program offered by Miller-Motte College. Employees of companies participating in Miller-Motte's Preferred Employer Partnership program will receive a 50% tuition discount on Miller-Motte's online programs. Immediate family members are also eligible for the reduced rate. Participation as a Preferred Employer Partner  is of no cost to employers.

"The Preferred Employer Partnership Program is an easy, no cost way for businesses to show their employees they are valued and appreciated. It allows employees to continue doing a good job at work while pursuing something that's important to them and their families," said Natalie Williams of Ancora Education network of private post-secondary schools and parent company to Miller-Motte.

Queens Medallion Leasing, a New York City taxi fleet, is one of Miller-Motte's first employer partners to participate in the program. The program includes access to Miller-Motte's online offerings, including two new bachelor degree programs.

"The gift of education is a meaningful benefit for our employees. We have decided to extend the program to our drivers as well, who are independent contractors. In our conversations with drivers we have learned that it is a burden to pursue an advanced education due to expensive college tuition. Through this partnership we have implemented an easy way for us to show our employees and drivers that as a company we understand the importance of education and family ," said Danielle DiTomo of Queens Medallion Leasing (QML), a New York taxi company. "Providing this benefit to our employees and our contract drivers and their families is something we are proud to be able to offer."
