Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees in Maryland aims to support eligible employees in enhancing their skills relevant to their job roles. Key features include educational support for courses from accredited institutions that relate directly to the employee's current job or future career aspirations. Full-time employees with at least one year of service can participate, and the program covers tuition and registration expenses, with reimbursement based on grades received for up to a specified number of credits per semester. Employees must submit a tuition reimbursement form before starting a course and secure approval from their supervisor and HR. Upon course completion, documentation such as transcripts and proof of payment must be submitted for reimbursement. It's important to note that if an employee leaves the organization within two years of receiving reimbursement, they are required to repay the funds. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants looking to foster a culture of continuous professional development and compliance with HR guidelines in educational funding.
