The Criminal Justice Council, through the Law Enforcement Officers Education Reimbursement Program, is proud to assist Delaware’s men and women in law enforcement to achieve their higher education endeavors so that they may better serve the citizens of Delaware.
The Law Enforcement Officers Education Reimbursement Program enables certain full-time, certified law enforcement officers, including those employed by Probation & Parole, to receive tuition reimbursement for both undergraduate and graduate coursework. It is possible to receive 100% reimbursement for both undergraduate and graduate courses after satisfaction of the requirements listed below.
The application submission period is closed. Please check back at a later time or contact Matthew Astfalk with any questions. Once the next application period opens, applications can be submitted through https://etarp.delaware.gov. Once applicants complete the first page, they will receive an auto-generated link so they may return to their application if they do not complete the submission process in one sitting. Applicants should have income verification (tax return from 2022 and/or W-2 form from 2023), in addition to their latest student loan statements from their loan servicer ready to upload to the secure system.
