Tuition Reimbursement Program

Beginning January, 2007, Avenues has revised its tuition reimbursement policy.  Tuition reimbursement will be provided to employees who are regularly scheduled to work at least 32 hours per week and who have been employed at Avenues for at least 12 consecutive calendar months.  Employees who work from 21-31 hours per week could receive this benefit at a pro-rated amount.  Employees scheduled to work 20 or less hours per week are not eligible.

The Avenues tuition reimbursement program will not cover 100% of any employees’ tuition costs.  Books, fees, loan and other educational costs are also not covered under the Avenues’ program.  

Prior authorization is required from the Avenues Executive Director for employees to participate.  A listing of coursework and expected dates of graduation must be submitted as part of the Avenues Tuition Reimbursement application process. 

Tuition reimbursement will be for coursework completed with a grade of C or higher.  Tuition reimbursement will not exceed the maximum level as published in the current year Schedule of Reimbursements.  Reimbursements will be provided only to persons who are current employees of Avenues at the time of submission of final grade and reimbursement requests. 

Forms 1 and 2 must be filled out and submitted for approval.
