         eligible for Reimbursement.   

Applications:

ALL applications should be submitted as soon as you know what course, training, workshop etc. that you will be taking.  Applications must include the cost and dates of attendance in order to determine if there is money available to reimburse you.  Final applications for the year are due no later than 12/1/06.   A confirmation will be mailed to you indicating if the money is available.   The money will be held for you until you have completed the course/workshop and have submitted all required documentation.  Your childcare site must meet the meeting requirements as stated in the Provider Participation Guidelines FY’06 before any reimbursements occur.  If your childcare site does not meet the meeting requirements, you will not be reimbursed. All reimbursements will be processed towards the end of the fiscal year in order to determine meeting requirement status.

 

ALL REIMBURSEMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO REVISION BASED ON THE AVAILABILITY OF FUNDING IN FY ’06.

 

Documentation Requirements:

Childcare providers submitting tuition reimbursement requests will provide documentation of (1) payment of course (cancelled check, bursars receipt, credit card statement etc.) and (2) completion of workshop/course, in the form of a grade report, transcript, certificate of attendance, membership card, letter from the college, etc.  If a course is paid by a student loan, the Partnership may reimburse the loan company for the cost of the course, if provided with all of the above documentation.

Documentation Deadlines:

~College Courses: Documentation for the fall semester must be received no later than 12/1/06. 

~Workshops/Trainings Etc: Documentation must be received in a timely manner after the workshop/training.  The Coordinator will initiate one reminder (a call or letter) with a date to send in documentation.  If it is not received by the date, the money reserved for you will then become available to other applicants.

 

Appeals Process:  In the event that any issues arise that need clarification, the training subcommittee will reconvene to make recommendations.
