Through its relationship, Caesars will offer nearly 50,000 US-based staff access to low-cost or free degrees via Strayer and Capella University.
The move comes as Caesars looks to continue the development of its ‘All-In On Education’ programme, a scheme designed to provide employees with access to education and training to “kick-start students’ educational journeys and pursuit of professional development.”
Strategic Education President of Education Technology Services Terry McDonough said: “Caesars Entertainment’s investment in its workforce through the ‘All-In On Education’ campaign will position it as the go-to employer in the entertainment space for individuals looking to advance their economic mobility.
“We are thrilled to support Caesars as they provide their eligible workforce of nearly 50,000 team members with access to our tuition assistance platform, and we look forward to our new partnership.”
Eligible Caesars employees will also have the opportunity to access further degree programmes through the extensive Workforce Edge network, and can use their yearly tuition assistance fund to cover new degree courses at institutions of their choice.
Caesars Chief Administrative and Accounting Officer Stephanie Lepori said: “Through our partnership with Workforce Edge, we’re able to expand and improve our education assistance to our team members at Caesars Entertainment.
“The platform has allowed us to create an easy-to-use and helpful portal for our eligible team members where they can learn about the benefits that are now available to them. We’re excited to continue to elevate Caesars as a leading employer in the gaming and entertainment space.”
In May 2022, Caesars announced a donation of over $3.3m to national and local non-profit charities through the Caesars Foundation.
