Many employers realize that an investment in their employees is actually an investment in their company. With employer-sponsored education opportunities, employees can continue their education with little to no out-of-pocket expense in exchange for signing a contract to continue working with that company for a set amount of time. For many, it is a win-win situation. An interviewer is likely to recommend a candidate for employment if he feels that the candidate has the intention to stay employed within the company for an extended time and taking advantage of an employer-sponsored education can guarantee that. However, if you are not interested in continuing your education at this time, simply state that you have reached a place where you are satisfied with your degree, but appreciate the fact that the option is there if your future goals change.

"I think having an opportunity to continue education while working is an awesome benefit! I initially completed my Associate's degree and planned to go back to school later. I want and need to work, but would love the opportunity to work toward my Bachelor's degree without having to sacrifice my job."

"I loved nursing school and completed my practical nursing degree. While I realize there are several opportunities for nurses with higher degrees, at this point in my life, I feel content with where I am professionally. It is nice to know that I could explore the option of continuing my education and continue working later on, if my goals change."
