Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees in Hennepin is designed to support eligible employees in developing their skills through approved educational courses. Key features of the program include coverage for tuition and registration fees for courses related to the employee's current job or future positions. Full-time regular employees with at least one year of service are eligible to participate. To receive reimbursement, employees must submit a tuition reimbursement form for prior approval and must continue to be employed at the time of course completion, achieving at least a qualifying grade. The reimbursement amounts vary based on grades received, with incentives for higher performance. If the employee receives funding from other sources, they can still apply for assistance, although reimbursement will only cover the difference. The program stipulates that any reimbursements must be repaid if the employee leaves the company within two years. This form is especially useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants who seek to further their education and skills while considering the financial implications and adherence to strict eligibility criteria.
