Why doesn't QTR cover or reduce program fees

Working on one of ASU's many campuses other than Tempe makes taking advantage of the QTR program less than ideal, forcing many of us to use ASU online programs so that we can attend programs from another campus. Being forced to go to ASU online has us taking on the cost of larger program fees. Such as WP Carey's MBA program goes from 5K (in person) to 9K (online) a semester in program fee, making it financially impossible for almost any non-executive level ASU employee to be able to obtain this degree. Why does ASU's QTR program not eliminate any of these program fees, or at least reduce them? Can this be changed? or can ASU provide employer assistance to colleges or certification programs to organizations external to ASU?
Resolution:
Since student circumstances vary, they have the opportunity to explore different QTR scenarios by utilizing the tuition estimator. For any questions, SBS does encourage all inquires to be directed to the QTR department directly. This will allow for a detail review on the student/employee account.

What is ASU's policy on paying for employees to get or renew professional certification required or by their position? The Zoom and Career EDGE and LinkedIn Learning are of poor quality and do not reach the educational requirements set forth by these professional organizations.

I explored my options for QTR and although it is a great perk, it is still costly out-of-pocket. That being said, I'm looking into Certificate options to continue my professional growth and development. I would like to see a professional development stipend or scholarship opportunity to pursue other professional growth certificates and options outside of our system. In my previous roles from other employers, they offered a stipend for professional growth.
