The Army announced policy updates today to a pair of voluntary education programs for active-duty, Army Reserve and National Guard Soldiers.
The new guidance includes a $500 increase and two semester-hour increase for tuition assistance, and changes to the credentialing assistance program.
“The Army recognizes the value of the tuition assistance and credentialing assistance programs, both of which support our Soldiers’ professional development and readiness levels,” said Christine Traugott, policy manager for Soldier education and transition with the office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Manpower and Reserve Affairs.
