Professional Development Reimbursement Program

Q. May I use this reimbursement form for multiple events throughout my term?  

 Yes. Please complete a form for each event you’re interested in attending.

 

Q. How much money can I request per event?  

There is no limit to how much you can request, however there is a limit to how much Kupu can reimburse you. There is a set budget for this program and it must be shared with all  members. If you send in a large request, please be aware that we might only approve partial reimbursement. For example, if each request was for $200, we’d have enough funds in the budget for a total of 15 members.  

 

Q. What opportunities/purchases are NOT eligible for reimbursement?

• College/university courses at institutions that accept the Americorps Education Award.

• Courses that extend beyond your term of service.

• Courses/events that involve prohibited activities (as outlined in your Member Service Agreement)

•  Purchase of gear/tangible items that can be sold/transferred to other individuals.

 

Q. What if something comes up affecting my ability to attend the event that I paid for?

Situations will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Please notify your PC as soon as possible if you’ve already paid for an event and are no longer able to attend.
