Walmart to pay college and tuition for associates

Walmart announced on Tuesday it will pay 100% of college tuition and books for associates through its Live Better U (LBU) education program.

Starting Aug. 16, the $1 a day fee will be removed for associates, making all education programs paid for by Walmart.

This means approximately 1.5 million part-time and full-time Walmart and Sam’s Club associates in the U.S. can earn college degrees or learn trade skills without the burden of education debt.
