Love’s Travel Stops is partnering with Guild to offer free employee training for U.S.-based full-and part-time team members. The program, called “Fuel Your Growth”, works via Guild’s platform and offers tuition-free education and skill development.
“When we make the decision to hire someone, we intend to support them from the day they are hired until they retire,” said Les Thompson, chief human resources officer of Love’s. “By investing in the growth of Love’s talented team, we meet them where they are in their learning and development journey while eliminating prohibitive cost barriers.”

“Fuel Your Growth” is available for Love’s employees after 30 days of employment in good standing, and is designed for working adults so they can balance work and education. The platform allows users to complete high-school degrees, undergraduate-degree programs, do training bootcamps, receive certifications, and participate in language learning classes. Other resources offered through the platform include one-on-one coaching support, career services, and more.
“A program through Guild aligns with my goals of furthering my education, which is important because it broadens my skill set and fosters creativity and innovation which allows me to contribute fresh ideas and perspectives in my Love’s career,” said Jacquie Stamps, IT portfolio management analyst for Love’s.
