Expenses
Please review the information below before submitting your expense request.
PVSC Reimbursement Policy – due date December 31st
The EIR program will pay for the Police Vulnerable Sector Check for the FIRST year of the EIRs participation in the program.
Material Reimbursement Policy – due date July 31st
The Engineer in Residence program has set aside a small fund to ensure that engineers (and teachers) are not dipping into their own pockets to finance EIR activities. The EIR program will help to cover the cost of items a school would NOT normally cover (eg. popsicle sticks, paper clips, pipe cleaners, or other materials for activities). As EIR activities are curriculum-linked, it is expected that schools will provide some materials and equipment (eg. glue, scissors, etc.). The EIR program offers each EIR up to $300 per academic year.
The policies governing material reimbursement are as follows:
- Only EIRs may submit for reimbursement (exception will be made for virtual matches – teachers may submit).
- Acceptable reimbursement includes materials (eg. dry ice, motors, popsicle sticks, etc.). Examples of items that would NOT be included: travel costs, meal costs.
- Forms must be submitted by EIRs only, and receipts attached (exception made for virtual matches)
EIR reimbursement forms must be submitted by July 31st of the program year.
