1 Proposal Memo To: Senior Management Team From: Human Resources Department Date: April 15, 2017 Subject: Tuition Reimbursement Program There is growing need of having tuition reimbursement program in the company. The nature and the current organization framework does not meet all needs of clients being served in the market. Changes in the corporate market has made it a mandatory to keep up with the market dynamics and be ahead of competition as well as meeting customer needs. In relation to above, I am writing to seek a permission to conduct primary and secondary research on the nature and composition of tuition reimbursement program. Tuition reimbursement program is very beneficial to the needs of accompany as well as working as a toll of meeting customer needs. It works by having an approach through which employer’s offers to pay back to the cost of education met by employees. The employees who take up the courses pay from their own pockets while undertaking the courses. The costs of tuition are met by the employees but when the course is over, the organization caters for the cost of the tuition, hence doing reimbursement of the tuition costs. The benefits of the program include easy approach of registration and enrollment of new courses. Employees who register or enroll the new course will not have any stress relating to costs and tuition money which is attached (Pattie, Marshall and Yehuda pp. 423-442). A good number of the employees will be in position to get better skills and enhance them skills which boots the 2 level of outcome in the company. Application of the course can be done online and learning take place on part time basis. Growth of smarter employees emerges after getting the educational services which in turn increases the level of production and output. The level of employee turnover reduces due to the benefits provided. Still, there are tax break which give the employee a good chance to study while the company catering for the costs gets good amounts of tax breaks. Having good qualification in the field of research and analysis, I will be of very much help in coming up with a complete analysis and project showing how the reimbursement program helps the company as well as the employees. My experience in the field of research hence is a guarantee of very quality and productive work. The research can be done within a period of 12 weeks, enabling me to collect data, do an intensive analysis and give the figures compiled in a simple manner. Tuition reimbursement program is very productive and beneficial activity which should be started to ensure that both the company and the employees benefit from it to best level. 3 References Pattie, Marshall, George S. Benson, and Yehuda Baruch. "Tuition reimbursement, perceived organizational support, and turnover intention among graduate business school students."
