The program includes 10 academic partners ranging from the University of Arizona to Southern New Hampshire University. Participants must remain part-time or full-time employees at Walmart to be eligible. The company said Tuesday that it will drop a previous $1 a day fee paid by Walmart and Sams Club workers who want to earn a degree and also begin covering the costs of their books. Around 28,000 workers participate in the program, which Walmart began in 2018. Walmart has around 1.5 million workers. We feel that eliminating the dollar a day investment removes the financial barriers to enrollment, and it will increase access, Lorraine Stomski, senior vice president of learning and leadership at Walmart, said on a call with reporters Tuesday. Walmart will cover 100% of college tuition for its workers The move comes as retailers around the country face challenges hiring employees to staff stores and warehouses.
