Children of State Teammate Tuition Reimbursement Program

Recently, Governor Ricketts announced a new educational benefit that is now available to state teammates beginning May 8, 2022. The Children of State Teammate Tuition Reimbursement Program will provide tuition assistance to dependents of state teammates attending any of Nebraska’s community colleges. This program will not only enhance teammates’ work experience, but also help recruit and retain a strong workforce in state government. This is also a great opportunity for the State to partner with our community colleges and highlight all they can offer as a top choice in Nebraska for higher education.

We are excited to share initial information about the program, eligibility requirements and how to submit an Eligibility Verification Request for your child.  Additional information and forms are available on MCC's Children of State Teammate Tuition Reimbursement Program page.
