Bill Summary

Relativerelative to tuition payments for certain employees of the Commonwealth taking public higher education courses. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill allows active employees of the Commonwealth, meaning those currently working for the state government, who have completed more than five years of service to take courses at any state college or public university. These courses will be available on a "space available basis," meaning employees can enroll only if there are open spots after regular students have registered. Importantly, these employees will receive a fifty percent reduction on tuition and fees for any courses they take, making higher education more accessible for long-serving state workers.
