Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees is designed to help eligible employees, particularly those with disabilities, develop their skills and enhance their job performance in Chicago. This program provides tuition reimbursement for courses from accredited institutions directly related to the employee's current job or potential career advancement. Eligible employees, who must be full-time and have completed at least one year of service, agree to enroll in specific programs while ensuring it does not interfere with their job duties. Reimbursement covers tuition and registration fees based on a tiered grading system, incentivizing successful academic performance. Employees may seek additional funding sources but can only be reimbursed for the difference in costs. To receive reimbursement, employees must follow a clear process that includes submitting a tuition reimbursement form for approval and providing proof of course completion. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it outlines the criteria and responsibilities for both employees and employers, ensuring a structured and fair approach to educational assistance for individuals who may require added support due to disabilities.
