Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees is designed to support eligible employees in enhancing their skills and performance through educational opportunities. This program offers reimbursement for tuition and registration fees for approved courses at accredited institutions, including colleges and technical schools, provided that these courses relate to the employee's current job or future positions within the organization. Eligibility requires full-time regular employees to have completed a minimum of one year of service. The reimbursement structure is tiered based on the grade received, offering up to 100 percent reimbursement for an 'A' grade, and decreasing percentages for lower grades, with no reimbursement for grades below a 'C.' To access reimbursement, employees must complete a tuition reimbursement form, secure prior approval from their supervisor and the HR department, remain employed at the time of course completion, and achieve a qualifying grade. Upon completion of the course, an official transcript and proof of payment must be submitted to HR. Notably, if an employee leaves the company within two years of receiving reimbursement, they must repay the amount to the employer. This form is particularly beneficial for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants seeking to enhance their qualifications and skill sets while balancing their professional responsibilities.
