Qualitative data were gathered through two sets of semi-structured interviews with members of the division, one set with those that had not used tuition reimbursement and one set with those that have used tuition reimbursement, which volunteered following participation in the survey. The analysis of the quantitative data were for descriptive statistics. The analysis of the qualitative data showed time, lack of information, mindset, and finance as barriers. The analysis of the qualitative data went on to show extra pay, additional education time, higher education requirements, and bonus point on a promotional as incentives that would entice firefighters to utilize tuition reimbursement. Policy recommendations based on the findings were to increase the visibility of the tuition reimbursement program, streamline the paperwork, and implement a pay incentive program.
