Cohen, City Manager <br /> <br />3/15/2012 <br /> <br />Change in Personnel Policy re: Tuition Reimbursement <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br /> <br />Approve the resolution amending the personnel policy regarding tuition reimbursement <br /> <br />REASONS: <br /> <br />The City has been supportive of its employees pursuing training and other educational <br />opportunities designed to maintain or increase knowledge, skills, and/or abilities. As our <br />employees move up the academic ladder, the costs of seeking advanced degrees also <br />greatly increases. <br /> <br />In recognition of the fact that our more senior level employees are the ones typically <br />seeking these advanced degrees, we are proposing amending the tuition reimbursement <br />policy to allow for a higher initial reimbursement level of $3,000 for these employees, <br />which is currently the maximum allowed for all employees. So as not to disciminate <br />against other non-senior employees, any employee who is seeking a Master's degree or <br />higher would also be eligible for the higher tuition reimbursement level. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br /> <br />Resolution <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Educational Reimbursement Program <br /> <br />Date <br /> <br />J():T <br />3-\S-'~J <br /> <br />Agenda Item <br /> <br />http://sibagenda.sibfl.net/ agenda/Preview.aspx?I temID=73 8&MeetingII <br />
