The TA Program is designed to provide opportunities for Service members to realize their educational goals while allowing for judicious oversight of taxpayer dollars. The initiative part of the President’s Executive Order for Principles of Excellence is designed to improve oversight of the educational programs offered to our Service members and their families by establishing new uniform rules that ensure a quality DoD Tuition Assistance (TA) Program. On July 7, 2014, the Department of Defense published to the Federal Register Change 3, DoDI1322.25, “Voluntary Education Programs,” increasing protections to Service members and their families through an enhanced Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) partnership with educational institutions. DoD policy requires educational institutions that wish to participate in the DoD Tuition Assistance (TA) Program to sign an MOU conveying the commitments and agreements between the educational institution and DoD prior to an educational institution receiving funds from a service's TA program. The revision to the Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) 1322.25, "Voluntary Education Programs," includes an appendix containing the DoD Voluntary Education Partnership Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between DoD Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (USD(P&R)) and educational institutions. These responsibilities are accomplished through the Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Military Community and Family Policy and the Chief of Continuing Education in the Educational Opportunities Directorate. The Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel Readiness provides overall policy guidelines for Voluntary Education Programs in the Department of Defense.
