Support for College Credit Courses
In
our continuing efforts to encourage the professional
development of personnel who are employed in adult
education programs across our state, the State Bureau
of Adult Education shall set aside annually a modest
Scholarship Fund that will be governed by the policies
outlined below.
-
Tuition support shall be considered for all paid
personnel in the State Adult Learner Services,
ABE, and Adult Diploma programs.
- Applications
for tuition support will be considered on an individual
basis by the Bureau of Adult Education.
- Applications
will be judged on the following criteria: Relevance
of the course to the applicant’s position
in the local adult education program.
- The
amount of support will be decided on the following
bases:
a. The applicant is receiving no other support.
b. The applicant is receiving other support.
- If
the applicant is receiving no other support, the
State Bureau of Adult Education will provide up
to $200. per credit starting July 1, 1999.
-
Requests for tuition support must be submitted
prior to the first class meeting.
- An
individual will be eligible for support for a
maximum of eight credits per program year (July
1st through the following June 30th.)
-
When the application for tuition support is approved
by the State Bureau of Adult Education, the applicant
is informed of the amount of support. When a copy
of the paid receipt and a grade for the course
are received in our Concord Office, a check for
the agreed upon amount will be sent to the applicant.
-
In unusual circumstances individual waivers of
the above policy can be authorized by the State
Adult Education Administrator.
An applicant must submit the Application
for Tuition Support form and the Letter
of Recommendation from Program Director form

approval PRIOR to the beginning of his/her class.
