Dollywood announced this week that if any of its employees want to continue to pursue their education, they're more than happy to foot the bill.

Herschend Enterprises, the operating partner behind Dolly Parton's Dollywood, Dollywood’s Splash Country, Dolly Parton’s Stampede, Dollywood’s DreamMore Resort, Dollywood Cabins, and Pirates Voyage Dinner & Show, announced that starting this month they will start covering 100% of tuition, fees, and books for any of their employees who wish to further their schooling. Herschend will begin offering this workplace perk through its pilot program GROW U launching on February 24 for all seasonal, part-time and full-time employees. Hosts will be able to enroll starting on their first day of work in diploma, degree and certificate programs offered through 30 learning partners and in subjects such as business administration and leadership, culinary, finance, technology, and marketing. The company will also provide partial funding, up to $5,250/year, for 150 additional programs in fields like hospitality, engineering, human resources, and art design.
