My firm is sponsoring $5-$10k in certifications for me. They structure it as a reimbursement (so I pay up front) with them giving me a 12 month loan. If leave in the year, then I have to pay it all back.

Not planning to leave but found it interesting.

Anyone else find something like that?

What type of certifications?

Most employers prefer the reimbursement amount because it simplifies the reporting and compensation piece. Imagine trying to set up new vendors or the control issues to make sure you used the money to take the class. Always easier to make you pay for it and then make you wait for a reimbursement.

Ah wow that's super helpful and makes a ton of sense
