County approves tuition aid for two public‑health staff members
Summary
The committee approved county cost-sharing for tuition for two public-health employees: Jennifer Keenan’s amended request (9 credits; county share $1,777.50) and Mikaela Decker’s single‑course request (county share $777).
Public-health staff brought two tuition-aid requests to the committee. The first request was for Jennifer Keenan, pursuing a bachelor of nursing; the proposal on the agenda listed three credit hours but staff amended it to nine credit hours and a county cost of $1,777.50 (50% of tuition) for the three courses now included.
Members moved and seconded the approvals and carried both items by voice vote. The second request — a three-credit course through Mikaela Decker and Associates in Nursing totaling $1,554 — was approved at the county 50% share of $777. Committee members said such tuition assistance supports workforce development in public health.
