Learn How Districts are Maximizing Section 27k, While Ensuring They Stay Compliant with the Legislation
Thursday September 19, 2024 12:30pm - 1:45pm EDT
Section 27k presents a great opportunity for Michigan school districts. This distinctive legislation directs state funds straight to employees, assisting them with student loan payments. It effectively increases the money employees receive. In this session, we will discuss the requirements for both districts and employees to ensure the maximum benefit and compliance. Additionally, we will hear from a superintendent who has successfully helped his employees make the most of Section 27k. Takeaways: 1. Best practices and procedures to ensure compliance and maximize funding. 2. A comprehensive understanding of Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) and its integration with Section 27k. 3. Confidence and knowledge on applying today's insights about Section 27k to support employee financial well-being within the district.
