"Human resource managers already have in-depth standards when selecting benefits such as healthcare and 401k," said Balaji "Raj" Rajan, CEO of IonTuition. "Student loan assistance plans are a new and highly sought after benefit without industry standards. We've compiled these guidelines to help employers get the most from their investment by establishing plans with real long-term value for employees and their families."

Employers are looking for better ways to attract and retain a skilled, college-educated workforce. Offering student loan benefits, such as payment matching contributions, can save their employees years of repayment and thousands of dollars in interest. These considerations and more are explored in IonTuition's 2017–2018 Standards for Student Loan Guidance & Contribution Programs.
