Abstract

The focal point of this study was: Who is the beneficiary of educational assistance programs? Following focus group interviews, a survey instrument was developed. Responses were received from 455 people participating in various company educational assistance plans while enrolled in a mediumsized West Coast University's MBA program.

Suggestions for improving this situation are offered.
