Hi Everyone,

Unit 1 Professional Expense Reimbursement Fund (PERF) Claim Form Link

• For Those Holding Part-Time Appointments (Less than 9 Semester Hours of Unit 1 Teaching per Week)

ELIGIBILITY: Unit 1 members with part-time appointments in Winter 2025 are invited to apply for grants of $250.00 for the purposes of professional expense reimbursement (i.e., part-time appointments, less than 9 semester hours per week). 

• The PERF for members with part-time appointments are awarded on a first-come-first-served basis.
• Once the funds have been depleted, access to the form will be removed.  
• The fund access will open on March March 3 to March 31, 2025.
• Should the funds be depleted prior to the March 31st deadline, access to the form will close.

 Link for the online claim form:

• The Winter 2025 claim process closed on March 25, 2025; funds depleted! 

We encourage our members to apply as soon as possible to be successful.  As soon as the funds are depleted, the link will be closed.

Please note:  Unit 1 members holding part-time appointments are only eligible to receive funds once per academic year.  Those who were successful in Fall 2024 may find that when they try to submit the online claim form in Winter 2025 will be unable to do so and will receive the following message:  "Sorry, only one entry is allowed" or a hand emoji will come up on screen.
