UPS $23K for flight training?

[A1FlyBoy]

I've heard United Parcel Service offers part time ( 3.5 hour ) workers up to $23,000 for education- no questions asked.

Anyone know if this would apply to non-accredited flight training schools or be a legit way to pay for Multi-Time???

yeah, right. $23K a head for working 3.5 hrs? If that's true then tell me where to sign up!

UPS followup

seriously,

UPS WILL pick up $23K for school for part time workers, in addition to offering health insurance. How many companies do this now days.

I'd spend 3.5 hours a night sorting packages IF I could use it towards flight time. I, however, am assuming it is for accredited schools, ie college/university/or 141 schools and NOT applicable towards the local FBO flight school.

You can apply at their 1-800 #.

One of my old students is a driver for UPS and he has got it ok'd to get his ratings and UPS will cover them. It took some convincing but they finally approved it. So, it can be done.

You can get benefits and tuition after 4 months of employment.
