Program Cost

How much does the program cost? Who funds it?

The program is covered fully for eligible Amazon employees by Amazon Career Choice. If you enroll, you will not need to pay for the program out of your own pocket because the training program will use the full amount reflected on your career choice tuition benefit. 

Application Process

This includes all hourly non-exempt FC, CS, corporate, AWS, Amazon Fresh Stores, Amazon Books, Amazon 4-star, Amazon Pop Up, Amazon Go and certain retail and eligible subsidiary associates.

Are there any prerequisites to apply?

There are no prerequisites to apply. Beginners are welcome, and you do not need to have any previous training or knowledge to succeed here.

What is the application process?

The application process is an easy two step process consisting of a written application and a short skills assessment. Our process is not meant to be intimidating but a chance to get to know you better along the way! Our staff is here to guide you through the process each step of the way.

What is on the Assessment?

The assessment will test your knowledge of a few basic areas: critical thinking, quantitative reasoning, and data analysis. Some of the questions may be difficult, which is normal. The point isn’t to get everything right, but to show what you know and how you think so that we can curate the curriculum to your learning needs.

Can I apply to multiple Career Choice programs with Correlation One now?

You should only apply to one program for now. You may select on your application if you want to be eligible for additional programs for which you’re eligible.

When should I apply?

Of course. Our goal is to build the most flexible program for people with busy work and personal lives. With virtual content and an instructor staff ready to accommodate your needs, you’ll be able to succeed regardless of how busy you are. Career Choice also provides Amazon Associates with the ability to apply for school accommodations to reduce or change your work schedule to meet your needs as you complete the course.

What happens if I leave Amazon after starting the course?

If you leave Amazon for another job during the course you do not have to pay back tuition and you will be able to finish the course!
