Funding:
Tuition Receipts can be submitted anytime after the course has been paid for within the Pro-D Year (July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024) – you do not need to wait for course completion (see receipt requirements below).
Tuition submitted AFTER THE MAY 31ST DEADLINE will not be reimbursed.(Unless pre-approval to submit in June was given by the Pro-D Chair before the deadline).
Headcount teachers may apply to the STA Pro-D Collective Fund up to a maximum of $600 per teacher every school year, in addition to a maximum of $150 in Pro-D books. These funds are approved on a first-come, first-served basis. From your allotted funds you can spend up to $250 on tuition per school year.
All TTOCs and contracted teachers not covered under the head count (having a contract as of October 21) can access $300 in Pro-D Funds on a first come, first serve basis from the TTOC Calendar account as long as you have worked at least 2 days in the previous pay period. From your allotted funds you can spend up to $250 on tuition per school year.
Tuition Maximums & Timelines:
University courses/tuition: Members can apply for up to $250 per school year (July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024) from the annual collective fund allotment, for credit and non-credit coursework. This includes any course, workshop, or program that is tax deductible.
