Amazon and WGU: A Nonprofit University Built for You
Join thousands of Amazon employees advancing their careers with WGU. Start with a degree, or level up with a certificate, or single course to try our flexible, competency-based approach.
Learn on your schedule, build real, job-ready skills and move faster when you know the material. Whether you’re upskilling for today or preparing for what’s next, WGU meets you where you are.
Getting Started is Easy:
Step 1
Explore and Apply
Once you’ve found a WGU degree program that interests you on the approved list below, click on the WGU Degree Application listing your employer as Amazon Inc. If you have any questions about the application just call 385.428.2623 and we can assist you.
Step 2
Speak with an Enrollment Counselor
Shortly after you complete the application, an enrollment counselor will reach out to discuss your options and help you navigate the next steps.
Step 3
Complete your Payment Request
Work with your manager to follow the approved steps to verify your Amazon Career Choice eligibility and submit a payment request through the Amazon A to Z Portal.
Amazon Career Choice Tuition Benefit:
- A full-time Amazon employee is eligible for up to $5,250 to spend on WGU courses during a calendar year.
- A part-time employee is eligible for $2,625.
These amounts are paid by Amazon. If an employee uses a portion of their Amazon tuition benefit at another school, they reduce the available tuition benefit with WGU, and will most likely need to self-pay a portion.
