Enterprise Learning Credits

The Enterprise Learning Credits program was launched in 2005 in response to the increasing number and professionalism of national student conferences and similar events that SOM students attend.

Through this program each student is eligible for $150.00 worth of Enterprise Learning Credits in each of their two years of MBA study. A student may roll all or part of any unused portions of the first year credit over to the second year.These credits may be used to:

  • Support the cost of travel to an educational activity related to a student's professional development such as a conference, case competition, or other similar non-SOM event.
  • Support an educational activity related to students' professional development as in a conference, speaker or other activity planned by an SOM Student Club.

ELC credits do not affect the funds available through the Club Central Bank. Funding continues to be available for a wide range of student activities through the Club Steering Committee process.

Examples of Activities Funded through ELC
Determination of what activities are eligible for ELC funding is made by the Office of Student and Academic Services. Examples of activities that have been funded to date:

  • Travel expenses related to a club-sponsored, international study trip.
  • Travel expenses to attend a professional conference or case competition off campus.
  • Registration fee for an on-campus conference.
  • CDO-sponsored job treks.

Examples of Activities Not Funded through ELC
Examples of requests deemed ineligible for ELC funding:

  • Expenses for meals of any kind
  • Professional licensing exams (CFA, Real Estate, etc)
  • Sports competitions
  • Travel to a job interview
  • Vacation, holiday or tourist travel

Administration
At least one week (5 business days) prior to the event, contact Rashayla Brown in the Office of Student and Academic Services, describing the activity for which you seek ELC support. Include:

  • Your Name
  • Event Name and description (including website link, if available)
  • Event Date
  • Budget, including event fees and travel expenses if appropriate

After the event, submit original receipts together with a completed Student Reimbursement Form to Rashayla Brown in A32. Be aware that reimbursement forms will not be processed until after the event has occurred. After 60 days, reimbursements become taxable income.

Note: No reimbursement forms will be processed after the end of the semester in which the event occurs.
