Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees is designed to assist eligible employees in Suffolk by providing educational support for skill development and performance enhancement. Eligible employees include full-time regular staff who have completed at least one year of service. The form outlines the process for reimbursement, which covers tuition and registration fees for approved courses at accredited institutions and specifies that the courses must be related to the employee's job or future career aspirations. Employees must submit a tuition reimbursement form prior to commencing the course and obtain approval from their supervisor and the human resources department. Reimbursement amounts vary based on the grade received, with a structured percentage return for grades A through C. If employees are receiving funds from another source, reimbursement is limited to the remaining balance after other assistance. The program enforces a repayment clause if the employee leaves the company within two years of receiving reimbursement. This form is particularly beneficial for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it supports continuous professional development, aligns educational pursuits with job responsibilities, and fosters a culture of learning within the workplace.
