We understand the importance of education and believe that everyone should have access to it.
From college scholarships, internships, and loans to career and personal development, we offer a variety of opportunities for our employees and community members to build a better life for themselves.
Opportunities That Facilitate Continued Learning
College Loans
Full-time employees can receive a short-term, no-interest loan, up to $5,000 per year, for certain classes at approved colleges and universities.
Tuition Reimbursement
We will reimburse employees taking job-related classes and degree and technical programs up to $5,000 for the cost of tuition, books, and fees per year of Dot employment.
English Classes
Our French- and Spanish-speaking employees can take free English Language Learner (ELL) classes at Dot to learn or become fluent in the English language.
Personal Development at Dot
It's our responsibility to take care of our employees. We do this by investing in personal development plans. Each full-time salaried employee participates in their own self-growth by taking classes and seminars that interest them and can enhance their career growth and home lives. We pay for this development and work with them to ensure their plan stays up-to-date as their interests and priorities change throughout the year.
