1199SEIU’s Training & Upgrading Fund Is The Key To A Brighter Future For Many UHealth Tower Healthcare Workers
October 20, 2023
From nurse degree programs and continuing education courses to citizenship classes, the 1199SEIU Training and Upgrading Fund has a variety of programs and resources to help UHealth Tower staff reach their educational goals.
The training and education benefits were negotiated as part of the collective bargaining agreement between 1199SEIU and the University of Miami Hospital and Clinics – UHealth Tower. Over the past year, the tuition reimbursement amounts have increased, and the eligibility criteria has been changed. Instead of the previous one-year requirement, employees who have been working at UHealth Tower for just 90 days are now eligible to apply for tuition reimbursements through this program.
