Tuition reimbursement for employees is a plan which offers financial assistance to an employee who takes college-level courses directly related to his/her work
or to a position the employee might conceivably be considered for in the future and which is likely to increase his/her value to the City.
You can also use the reimbursement for certifications and licenses.
This program is not specifically intended to support a full-time course of study, but is designed to enhance the quality of work that the individual brings to the job.
It is provided to those employees classified as regular full-time or regular part-time who have satisfactorily completed one year of continuous service.
If courses are pre-approved, employees may submit the class for reimbursement during the eligible reimbursement period each fiscal year and may receive up to $5,250 per fiscal year in reimbursement.*
* For receiving reimbursement under this policy, an employee must agree to continue in employment with the City for at least two years from the date of completion of the course(s) being reimbursed.
