EDUCATION REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT
(PDF)
Training is the lifeblood of many companies today; everything from extensive on-boarding to paying for expensive MBA programs. To protect from an employee getting educated and then immediately leaving, many companies use a Reimbursement Agreement such as this one. One caveat: Make sure that your state law and contract allows you to offset any monies owed from a final paycheck. Some states, such as California, do not allow a “self-help” remedy. You would have to go to court to enforce the terms of the contract.
