Best Buy’s workforce is now immediately eligible for benefits through Degrees@Work, powered by Strayer University

Signaling its commitment to investing in the professional well-being of its workforce, consumer electronics retailer Best Buy today announced an expansion of its education benefits relationship with Strayer University, an institution of higher learning for working adult students. Best Buy’s expanded offering will provide no-debt, no-cost-to-the-employee pathways to college degree options for all full- and part-time Best Buy employees in the United States through Strayer’s Degrees@Work program. Employees will have immediate access on their first day of employment.

The Degrees@Work program offers eligible employees the opportunity to take coursework or earn a certificate, associate, bachelor’s or master’s degree from Strayer University. Best Buy employees will have the opportunity to select from programs in areas such as business and information technology and have programs paid for directly by Best Buy. Employees will also have access, through Strayer University, to Sophia Learning – an online, on-demand, self-paced learning platform providing college-level general education courses that are ACE-recommended for college credit. Sophia courses can be applied towards their Strayer University degree.

"Best Buy has always prioritized the growth and development of our employees, and this expanded agreement covering Strayer’s Degrees@Work program underscores that commitment while also complementing our existing lineup of education benefits," said Charlie Montreuil, Best Buy SVP of HR Rewards. "At Best Buy, we believe that fostering continuous learning not only enhances personal and professional growth but also contributes to an inclusive and thriving workplace where everyone can succeed."

As the largest consumer electronics specialty retailer in North America, Best Buy has been an industry leader in providing education benefit options to its workforce. For over a decade, the company has partnered with Strayer to provide their employees with tuition discounts and reduced fees.

“We are proud to enhance our partnership with Best Buy, providing their U.S. employees with the opportunity to earn a college degree through the Degrees@Work program,” said Strayer University President Dr. Toni Farmer-Thompson. “Tuition benefits are a critical tool to help workers advance in their career and employers stay competitive. This enhanced program may help more Best Buy employees grow their professional skills, while pursuing their educational goals.”
