With an ever-changing digital economy, it's never been more important to stay competitive, productive, and efficient in your job.
Big things are happening at Nucamp.
Providing affordable education for employees become more achievable than ever with the launch of Nucamp for Business.
Nucamp for Business allows employers to pay for employee training so you can stay motivated and satisfied in your job, at no cost to you.
You might be thinking...
Why would my employer pay for a coding bootcamp?
Employee training is valuable for companies to invest in for a number of reasons, including 1) promoting loyalty, 2) employees perform better, and 3) the long-term benefits improve the company's performance.
In addition, if your employer has an Educational Assistance Program, they can receive a federal tax deduction of up to $5,250 per employee, per year. When considering the cost of Nucamp's already affordable tuition, your company can train its employees tax-free. Check out our Nucamp for Business page for more information.
