Description

The Educational Assistance Program for Employees is designed to support eligible workers in Washington seeking to enhance their skills and job performance through approved courses at accredited institutions. This program applies to full-time employees with at least one year of service, enabling them to pursue degrees or certifications that align with their current roles or future career goals. Key features include coverage of tuition and registration fees based on grades received, with a maximum limit on credits per semester. Employees must submit a tuition reimbursement form prior to course commencement and receive prior approval from their supervisor and the human resources department. Reimbursement is limited to the difference if other funding sources are available. Upon completion, employees need to provide documentation, such as transcripts and proof of payment. The form also stipulates repayment obligations if an employee leaves the company within two years of receiving reimbursement. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it outlines the structured approach to educational benefits while clarifying both the employer’s and employee’s responsibilities.
