Don’t make any assumptions before sitting down with your HR rep and walking him/her through your thought process.

My company makes exceptions to the policy ALL THE TIME. We have no interest in having employees struggling in a role when some more advanced coursework could fill their knowledge gap. We have no interest in a newly promoted employee under-performing because the courses they want to take don’t fit exactly into our tuition reimbursement policy.

Don’t assume. Go have a conversation and you might be surprised. Your HR rep may tell you to forward the curriculum of anything you are interested in taking to your manager- and if he or she agrees that it will enhance your knowledge of a “job-adjacent” topic, it’s likely to get approved.

or not. But at least you know…
