Career Advancement Program

Career Advancement Program
Through University of Nebraska-Omaha

The Career Advancement Program (CAP) offers tuition-free classes through the University of Nebraska-Omaha (UNO) for regular full-time and part-time employees of Metropolitan Community College after 6 months of continuous employment (some limitations may apply). This innovative partnership expands MCC's educational assistance program by allowing eligible employees to attend UNO classes with little to no out-of-pocket costs.

CAP provides employees with the following benefits:

  • Tuition paid directly to UNO--no reimbursement form needed
  • Registration-based fees are waived
  • Nearly all undergraduate and graduate level courses are eligible, and may apply towards the completion of a degree or professional development
  • Dedicated CAP specialists help participants navigate enrollment in UNO Classes

UNO offers over 7,000 courses each year--with more than 55% offered online or during the evening, including 80 undergraduate courses, 60 graduate courses, and 8 doctoral degree plans.

Employees are encouraged to work with their manager to ensure UNO coursework does not interfere with their work schedule and job responsibilities.
