Degree Program. An employee who decides to pursue a graduate degree program will meet with the Superintendent or his designee to review the proposed program. The review will determine if: a. the program will enhance the employee’s value to the Berkeley Heights School System through increased competence; b. the courses in the program meet the generally accepted standards of graduate level courses including on-line or long distance learning. If the Superintendent determines that the program meets the above criteria, the Superintendent will grant approval. Approval provided by the Superintendent for the proposed program ensures that all courses required as a part of the program are approved without further review. The employee will submit a notice to the Superintendent prior to enrolling in each course indicating that reimbursement will be sought upon successful completion of the course in accordance with the provisions of this article. Employees who have received approval for a graduate program may also submit requests for educational assistance for elective courses that are part of the graduate program. These courses will be reviewed in accordance with the criteria for non-degree courses. If a program is not approved, the employee retains the right to apply for individual courses as per the criteria and procedure defined for non-degree courses.
