All information sessions will be offered virtually, unless otherwise noted. Please continue to review this webpage for current partnership opportunities. Details on how to register for virtual information sessions are published weekly in The Bulletin 以及“高等教育伙伴关系”每月通讯. 

 

 

Higher Education Partnerships

The 人力资源和发展厅 works with local universities to provide tuition reimbursement and additional support at the undergraduate and graduate levels for individuals seeking teacher certification, continuing professional development, 或者追求职业发展的机会.  Partnership programs focus on expanding the candidate pool with respect to applicants representing diverse backgrounds and systemic areas of critical need.  这些项目涉及广泛的MCPS现场经验, supplemental training, and supervisory support by colleges, universities, and MCPS.

合作伙伴关系是员工的一个选择.  Employees, 在有福利资格的长期职位上, may also identify and pursue programs of study from accredited colleges and universities.  Employees 是否有资格申请学费发还 to support some of the tuition costs.  Details can be reviewed on the Tuition Reimbursement website.
