The College has entered into an Education Partnership Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreement with the Department of Defense (DOD), whereby the College provides educational services to military service members participating in off-duty, postsecondary education programs. The College provides a variety of services, including the acceptance of tuition assistance funding from the service member’s respective branch of Service, in helping these individuals reach their educational goals. As articulated in the agreement, it is of utmost importance that military service members can make the appropriate choices about educational pursuits without interference. College employees are committed to providing assistance in an objective, fair, clear, and understandable manner, and are bound by professional standards and applicable College policies that prohibit conflicts of interest.
This policy provides guidance to College employees providing assistance, while at the same time assuring the Department of Defense that those individuals choosing College postsecondary education programs will be treated in accordance with the parameters of the MOU.
This policy applies to all College employees providing assistance to military service members.
