Employee Awards Program
The Heart of America GCSA
offers an Employee Award
Program to those
who
are full-time employees and also taking turfgrass classes at the same
time.
This
program is designed to help offset some of
the cost for these
students.
The following criteria must be met to be eligible:

You must:
-
Be a current full-time
employee of a Heart of America GCSA member now and when eligible class(es) were taken.
-
Have worked 1,800 hours
within the current calendar year for a HAGCSA club/organization.
-
Be a part-time student
carrying 11 credit hours or less.
-
Attend an accredited
college or institution in Kansas or Missouri.
-
Carry a grade of C or
better in the eligible class(es).
To be Eligible:
-
All classes submitted
must be related to the turfgrass field/degree or certification in the
turf industry (successful certification or 4 year degree).
-
All classes must be taken
in calendar year of 2008 (i.e. spring, summer or fall semester of 2008).
-
Transcripts and proof of
payment must accompany application.
-
All applications must be
complete and have the necessary signatures – no exceptions.
Need to Know:
-
Out-of-District residences
will receive in-state rate tuition reimbursement.
(Instate rate x number of hours or $1,500. The lesser of the two.)
-
This is an Award, NOT a
total reimbursement or scholarship.
-
Awards are for tuition
costs only.
-
To enable HAGCSA in
helping as many employees as possible, please do not apply for an award
if your club reimburses educational expenses.
-

is January 31, 2009

of America
