Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees form is designed to facilitate employee development through educational opportunities. It outlines a structured agreement between the employer and employee for financial assistance toward approved courses at accredited institutions. Full-time employees with a minimum of one year of service can apply for reimbursement, covering tuition and registration fees based on grades received. The form specifies eligibility requirements, such as obtaining prior approval from supervisors and active employment at the time of course completion. Additionally, the program permits only partial reimbursement if the employee receives funding from other sources. Key features include maximum credit limits per semester, grade-based reimbursement rates, and a repayment clause if the employee leaves the company within two years post-reimbursement. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it helps guide employees through the process of obtaining educational funding without the employer's prior knowledge. It provides a clear framework for developing skills advantageous for career advancement while ensuring compliance with company policies.
