Course Reimbursement

Unit A members are eligible for up to 12 credits per year reimbursed at the average state tuition rate (up to $100,000 total for the unit).

PROCESS:

• Register for the course you want to take at an accredited college or university.

• Submit it for approval at least two weeks before the course start date:   All submissions will be processed through your PowerSchool Professional Learning account.  

  • Instructions for how to submit for approval can be found here.

• Submit it for reimbursement: Upon completion of your coursework, log back into PowerSchool PL and submit all supporting documentation (official transcript(s) and proof of payment in the form of debit or credit card payment).  Once this documentation is received, the reimbursement process will begin. 

  • Instructions for how to submit for approval can be found here. 

As a reminder, you must either have professional status with APS or be in your second or third year as an educator in APS to be eligible for course reimbursement.  If you are in your second or third year teaching at APS, you are eligible for course reimbursement by agreeing to and signing a repayment agreement.
