Description

The Educational Assistance Employees Form 109 in Cook is designed for employers to outline an educational assistance program for their eligible employees. This program supports employees in developing their skills and improving job performance through tuition reimbursement for courses at approved institutions. Key features include eligibility criteria, which require full-time employees with at least one year of service, and conditions for course selection, linking them to job relevance. The form specifies reimbursement rates based on grades achieved, with a structure that provides 100% for an 'A', 75% for 'B' and pass/fail, and 50% for a 'C'. To receive reimbursement, employees must submit prior approval requests and documentation after course completion, including official transcripts. Importantly, if employees leave the company within two years after receiving reimbursement, they must repay the funds. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, as it promotes professional development while ensuring the employer has a structured reimbursement program that aligns with employee career goals.
