Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees is designed to provide tuition assistance to eligible employees in Massachusetts, helping them enhance their skills and job performance. This program covers courses from accredited institutions, ensuring that the courses are relevant to the employee's current job or a position they may hold in the future. Eligible employees include all full-time regular staff who have completed at least one year of service. Key features of the program include reimbursement for actual tuition and registration fees based on grades achieved, with a clear reimbursement schedule. Employees must submit a tuition reimbursement form for approval before courses commence and provide proof of completion to receive reimbursement. If employees receive funding from other sources, they can seek assistance but are limited to receiving only the difference in coverage. The form also mandates that employees repay any reimbursements if they leave the company within two years. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants looking to develop their educational qualifications while maintaining compliance with the company's policies.
