Macalester employees may receive financial assistance for courses, seminars, or workshops that relate directly to their jobs and that are not available within the college curriculum. A job-related learning activity is one in which the content would directly enhance the employee’s productivity and achievement in performing his or her normally assigned duties and responsibilities. Please see the Employee Handbook for the full policy.
- Funding is available for one training opportunity per employee per fiscal year, up to $600. This is not a guaranteed benefit. If budget dollars are exhausted at the time we receive your application, we will be unable to approve the request.
- Assistance is limited to the base tuition or registration fee. No other costs are eligible.
- You may apply for financial assistance before paying for the training as long as you are reasonably certain that you will be attending.
After the below e-form has been signed by your supervisor and Accounting (confirming that funds are still available), you will receive a PDF of the completed form via e-mail. Please charge the training fee to your p-card and assign the FOAPAL indicated on the application form.
