Learn how to design a student loan benefit program that will have an immediate impact on your workforce 

According to Forbes, student loan repayment is the “Hottest Benefit of the Year,” but many employers still have questions about how the benefits work, whether they are right for their workforce, and what type of impact they will have on employees. In this session Gradifi, the leading provider of student loan and college savings benefits, will discuss the trends and successes it has seen helping companies implement this new class of benefits and will debunk some of the myths around costs, parity, and impact that have been holding some employers back. We will hear directly from companies who have launched student loan benefits and the lessons that they’ve learned along the way.

Learning Objectives

  • How to build a student loan benefit program that meets your unique workforce goals.
  • How the legislative environment may open the door to different types of programs.
  • How companies are measuring the impact of the benefits and calculating ROI.
