Recognizing the importance for College employees to develop professionally
through formal education, the College may provide financial support to
defray costs to employees for approved courses, as budgeted funds are
available. There are three different ways in which the College can assist
you and your family further your education:
|
| |
|
| • |
As a benefits-eligible employee, you may be eligible to enroll
in Ivy Tech courses for up to twelve (12) credit hours or an equivalent
number of non-credit courses (fees remitted for non-credit courses not to
exceed credit course fees for twelve (12) credit hours) per semester. Educational
travel courses are not eligible for fee remission. The College will waive
the general fee, technology fee, and distance education fee for the credit hours/noncredit courses when a fee remission waiver request form is approved prior to registration
for the course. |
| |
|
| • |
If you wish to enroll in classes outside of Ivy Tech, you
may be reimbursed for a maximum of twelve (12) credit hours per fiscal year,
provided the course is taken at an institution accredited by the federally
recognized regional association (i.e., North Central Association for an
Indiana college or university). For attendance at an Indiana state supported
college or university, the amount eligible for reimbursement is the general
fee credit hour rate. For attendance at a private or out-of-state college
or university, the College may reimburse tuition up to but not to exceed
the in-state general credit hour fee of the state college or university
in close proximity offering a similar course. The College will only reimburse
the general fees when: |

or possible future responsibilities within the College at the time the policy
is applied, or b) the course is an elective toward degree completion and
