Tuition assistance
Air Force members applying for tuition assistance will have to submit to the Education Center a degree plan that will be filed in their electronic education record prior to submitting their first tuition assistance application. Prior to approval of tuition assistance applications, Education Center counselors will verify that each course is applicable to the degree plan. Should the course not be listed on the degree plan, members will have to request approval from their program
adviser allowing them to take such course. Tuition assistance applications will be deferred back to the member if the information above is not followed.
Congrats graduates
Congratulations Community College of the Air Force class of October 2009 graduates. Although CCAF has two graduating classes per year, Ramstein holds one combined fall/spring graduation ceremony each spring. This year’s graduation is scheduled for May 7, 2010. Graduates may pick up their diplomas after the ceremony. Of course, there are exceptions for those graduates who will be separating, retiring or deployed before or during May. Students scheduled to PCS before spring graduation have two options: they may request diplomas presented at a Commander’s Call or during a monthly awards ceremony or the diploma can be sent to the gaining base for presentation at an appropriate ceremony, as required by CCAF directives. Graduates scheduled to separate or retire should consider the first option; diploma’s may be picked up by the Airman’s unit first sergeant for presentation. For questions, call the Education Center at 480-2032.
