Hi (I am a first-timer, can you tell?) I know the economy is slow now but I would like to advocate for a technology reimbursement program at my company. Do any of you know of such programs in other organizations and if so, what is involved? I know a large healthcare company had one as of a couple years ago. In order to improve employees' computer skills and keep them current/ahead, the company would reimburse the employee $500.00 for any of their technology purchases on an annual basis.

Thanks for your thoughts and experiences in advance.

You might try searching the websites of news organizations, computer manufacturers, or computer magazine publishers.

I think AT&T and Delta AirLines have offered some computer benefits.
