The state Firemen’s Association has developed a “Higher Education Learning Plan,” or HELP, to provide tuition reimbursement for up to 80 credit hours at a community college.
The state’s volunteer fire departments are experiencing a critical need to recruit more members. The plan was created to serve as an incentive for people to join a local fire department.
Under the plan student-volunteers are eligible to have up to 100 percent of their tuition reimbursed in exchange for maintaining good grades and fulfilling service requirements.
Students must be a “member in good standing” in one of the state’s volunteer fire companies during their school years and service payback period.
The Department of Homeland Security provided funding for the program.
