Opting-In for Future Employability

In the last issue of _Matt About Money_, I encouraged you to opt-in to a flexible spending account during this year’s so-called open enrollment season if your employer offers one. One other opt-in recommendation is to take advantage of your employer’s tuition reimbursement program if available. The majority of large companies offer such programs, and yet just a tiny fraction of employees utilize the benefit.

p(matt). The days of guaranteed employment are long over. But keeping our skills current is as close as we can come to guaranteed employability. While open enrollment season is usually not the only time you can sign up for tuition reimbursement, it’s a good reminder to see what your employer offers and to think about what classes may be beneficial. I earned a master’s degree courtesy of past employers. The work wasn’t easy, but it was easy on my wallet.
