Common use of Reimbursement for Additional Training Clause in Contracts

Reimbursement for Additional Training. College credit as used in this section shall mean any credit that would/could be applied toward the completion of a baccalaureate degree or an advanced degree in the field of education and any credit that is acceptable by the State Department of Education for granting, renewing, or upgrading a teaching, supervisory, or administrative certificate. The Board shall reimburse the costs for college credit in the manner described in paragraph 5 of this section for those credits for which the member received at least a grade of B or the credit granting institution’s equivalent of the grade of B or “pass” or its equivalent in a pass/fail course. Reimbursement shall be paid only to those who have returned to teach in the Plymouth-Shiloh School System for the following school year. After fulfilling course requirements, members will turn in proof of completion as outlined in paragraph 2 above and a receipt at any time prior to or on October 1. The Board shall provide funds for the purposes of tuition reimbursement as follows: 2018-19 - $19,000.00 These funds will be distributed to members meeting the requirements of paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 of this section. The yearly amount will be divided equally among members successfully completing training as specified above based on a semester credit hour prorated amount (1 ½ quarter hours = 1 semester hour) during the time period September 1 – August 31. For the purposes of this section hours completed must be applied to the year during which the work was successfully completed. Hours earned in one year cannot be carried forward to the next year for reimbursement except as specifically provided for in this section. Example: $10,000.00 divided by total credit hours taken during the period September 1 – August 31 = $ X per semester credit hour not to exceed the cost of courses taken, nor to be less than $50.00. Should the total number of credit hours taken be such that the formula provides less than $50.00 per semester hour, a lottery shall determine which hours shall be paid. The remaining hours will be rolled over to the following year and shall be given priority before any ensuing lottery. Members will receive no more than the cost of such training taken during the aforementioned time period. Reimbursement will be approved for payment no later than the October Board meeting. It will be the responsibility of the member to submit to the school officials on or before October 1: 1) evidence that the course has been satisfactorily completed and 2) evidence of the cost of the course to the member. Any fractional part of semester hour will be determined as to be one full semester hour when the fractional part is over fifty percent (50%). Reimbursement consideration will be made only on courses completed relative to the member’s educational pursuit.
