Reimbursement requests must be approved by all required individuals before the course/training occurs.

The employee completes the Employee Tuition Reimbursement Form for the current fiscal year and attaches the course description. The mailing address needs to be the employee’s personal address and “return claims to” should reflect the employee’s name and information.

The employee provides the request to their current supervisor, who then takes the request to the appropriate CDPO for approval prior to providing the request to Chief for the final approval and signature.

Upon approval, provide the form to the DPT for processing with Central Human Resources. At this time Central Human Resources will provide verification of available funds and approval.

Once approved or denied, the request will then be returned to the employee.

After the training occurs it is the employee’s responsibility to submit the proof of attendance, completion and verification of payment per the reimbursement instructions.
