Tuition Reimbursement & Incentives

The Tuition Reimbursement Incentive Program (TRIP) was created to help companies attract top technicians by drawing attention to employers offering various incentives for graduates. These incentives could include tuition assistance, sign-on bonuses, tools and more. Skilled technicians are in demand, and employers are going to great lengths to recruit and retain talent, including graduates of UTI.
