The Educational Assistance Program for Employees in Georgia is designed to support eligible employees in developing their skills through approved educational courses. This program covers tuition and registration fees for courses offered by accredited institutions such as colleges and technical schools, provided these courses relate to the employee's current job or future opportunities within the company. Eligible participants include full-time employees who have completed at least one year of service. Reimbursement amounts are based on grades received, with a structure incentivizing higher academic performance. Employees must submit a tuition reimbursement form and obtain prior approval from their supervisor and human resources. Additionally, proof of course completion is required to receive reimbursement. The form highlights important details: such as repayment obligations if the employee leaves the company within two years of receiving assistance. This is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants who seek to enhance their qualifications and job performance within the legal industry.
