Thom Academy Tuition Reimbursement Program
Thom Child and Family Services is pleased to offer a time-limited, continuing education opportunity to staff once again this year. Thom Academy is a Tuition Reimbursement Program for employees to support their ongoing professional development. The maximum award is $300 per employee.
Guidelines for Participation:
*Please note: Thom Academy guidelines have changed, please read all guidelines prior to applying.*
- The Thom Academy application period is from July 22, 2024 - March 7, 2025.
- To be eligible for Thom Academy, you must be employed by Thom Child and Family Services for at least 6 months.
- Before submitting a Thom Academy application, you must discuss your proposed training/application with your program director and receive their approval before submission.
- In your application, you must indicate how this training will support your work in early intervention and how you will share information with others in your program.
- Only training opportunities relevant to early intervention and/or your role at Thom are eligible for reimbursement.
- More than one training course can be covered with Thom Academy funds using ONE application (subsequent applications will not be funded).
- The maximum award amount is $300.00 and can only be used towards tuition/fees/materials related to the training.
- Only training opportunities offered, purchased, and completed during this fiscal year (July 1, 2024- June 30, 2025), can be reimbursed through Thom Academy.
- Due to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), employees who apply for an annual membership/learning pass will be reimbursed on a pro-rated basis. For example, if an employee purchases a $200 annual training pass on 10/1/24, reimbursement will only be made for the 9 months that fall within this fiscal year, so the reimbursement will be for $150.
- Please note, funds are limited, and will be distributed on a first-come-first-served basis.
- ALL RECEIPTS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY JUNE 15, 2025, to receive reimbursement.
- Applications can be completed online only. Interested employees can apply here: Thom Academy 4.0 Application.
