Ohio Admin. Code 123:1-39-06
Full-time stipendiary arrangements, when an agency has funds available for this purpose, may be made for employees paid by warrant of the director of budget and management, at an approved educational institution. Such arrangements will normally be made for periods of at least one academic term or quarter but not more than two academic years. The stipend will not exceed regular salary plus tuition, books, and related school expenses. Under a stipendiary program, the employee will sign an agreement to work for the employing state agency for a period of time at least equal to the length of the stipend program and the agreement will provide for repayment of all or a portion of the stipend if the employee fails to maintain employment for the required term. Repayment may be waived by the appointing authority when warranted by exceptional circumstances. Use of this program will be limited to fields of study in which the employee is working. Each appointing authority will maintain regular reports, and make them available to the director upon request, showing the number of employees receiving a stipend under this provision and the type, cost, and amount of education received.
