S. employees through Career Choice.  \nAmazon will  \npay employees’tuition and fees in advance rather than offering reimbursement after coursework completion.  \nAmazon front-line  \nemployees will have access to annual funds for education as long as they remain at the company, with no limit to the number of years they can benefit.  \nAll 750,000 U. S.  \nhourly employees are eligible to participate in Career Choice 90 days after starting at Amazon.  \nAMAZON UPSKILLING REPORT 2021 INTRODUCTION 3  \nThe American Upskilling Study  \nA first-of-it-kind study by Gallup, commissioned by Amazon, shows how access to upskilling is becoming a sought-after employee benefit—and a powerful talent attraction tool. The study found  \nMost workers want to update their skills. When asked if they were interested in participating in an upskilling program, more than half (57%) of U. S. workers surveyed were “extremely” or“very” interested in doing so.  \nAmong workers who participated in an upskilling program, the vast majority (75%) reported experiencing some type of  \nadvancement in their careers.  \nSixty-nine percent of workers who were interested in upskilling programs were “very” or “extremely” likely to leave their job for upskilling opportunities provided by another employer.  \nU. S. workers who completed upskilling programs over the past year have seen an average salary increase of 8.6%—the equivalent of an additional $8,000 on average in their annual earnings.  \nFor young adults entering the labor market, employer-funded upskilling is more important than paid vacation time.  \nAMAZON UPSKILLING REPORT 2021 INTRODUCTION 4  \nSection 1:  \nUpskilling programs for Amazon employees  \nNew upskilling programs for Amazon employees  \nAWS Grow Our Own Talent offers on-the-job training and job placement opportunities to Amazon employees and entry-level candidates with nontraditional backgrounds.
