The Case Educational Enhancement Fund is available to all staff members at Case Western Reserve University.
This fund was established as a result of funds obtained from the Gala Ball held on March 17, 2007.
Funds can be used for textbooks, certification, on-line courses, courses off campus, or out-service training
(courses, training sessions, conferences, conventions, professional association meetings or workshops) not
funded under regular university benefits. Funds may not be used for travel related expenses (food,
transportation, lodging, etc.).

Verification of payment (i.e. receipt) must be submitted for reimbursement.
Staff members are eligible to receive awards two semesters per academic year.
