This payment is for the agency stipend for the employed recruit’s salary, and any
additional allowable expenses included in the application. If the recruit withdraws from
the academy session or resigns from the agency prior to expending the full $4,000.00,
the balance shall be returned to MCOLES and applied back to the scholarship fund.
Following this application approval by MCOLES, the basic law enforcement training
program will invoice MCOLES directly for the eligible expenses related to the recruit’s
academy session. There is no action required by the agency for this reimbursement.
Please note that agencies would not also receive Training to Locals (TTL)
reimbursements for employed recruits funded through this program.
If you have any questions, please contact MCOLES at MSP-MCOLES-
Grants@michigan.gov.
Sincerely,
Cristina Dowker
