Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees in Franklin provides a structured framework to support employee development through educational programs. Eligible employees must be full-time and have completed at least one year of service to qualify. The program covers tuition and registration fees for courses at accredited institutions that are related to the employee's current job or career advancement. Reimbursement rates are based on the final grades, with 100% for an 'A', 75% for 'B' and 'Pass', 50% for 'C', and no reimbursement for grades lower than 'C'. To receive funds, employees must submit a tuition reimbursement form prior to course start, obtain approval from their supervisor and HR, and maintain employment until course completion with a qualifying grade. Upon course completion, an official transcript and proof of payment are required. Importantly, if an employee leaves the organization within two years of receiving reimbursement, they must repay the funds. This program is particularly beneficial for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants seeking to improve their skills and advance professionally through continued education.
