The Educational Assistance Program for Employees is designed to support eligible employees in Riverside by providing financial assistance for educational courses that enhances their skills and job performance. This program is available to full-time regular employees who have completed at least one year of service. Eligible courses must be related to the employee's current role or part of a degree program the employer recognizes as achievable. The reimbursement covers tuition and registration fees based on the grade received, with a detailed schedule outlining reimbursement percentages. To qualify, employees must submit a tuition reimbursement form prior to course commencement, receive approvals from their supervisor and the human resources department, and maintain employment with the employer during course completion. After completing the course, they must present an official transcript and proof of payment to HR. If an employee leaves the company within two years of receiving reimbursement, they must repay the amount to the employer. This form serves as a vital resource for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants by providing clarity on funding for educational endeavors, ensuring they understand the requirements and processes involved.
