Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees is designed to help employees in Pennsylvania improve their skills and boost job performance through approved educational courses. Eligible employees, who must have at least one year of service, can receive reimbursement for tuition and registration fees up to a specified maximum per semester. The courses must be directly related to the employee's current job or their career advancement as deemed suitable by the employer. Reimbursements are based on the grades received, with different rates assigned for grades A, B, C, and lower. Employees may also seek funds from other sources but will only be reimbursed for the difference in costs. To qualify for reimbursement, employees must submit necessary documentation, including a tuition reimbursement form and an official transcript, after completing their courses. If an employee leaves the company within two years of receiving reimbursement, they must repay the funds to the employer. This form serves as a critical tool for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants who manage employee benefits and agreements, ensuring clear guidelines for educational support while promoting professional growth.
