Pursuant to this Agreement associates will be reimbursed via the VGCP for up to two successfully passed certification exams per calendar year.
Additional terms and conditions are as follows:
- VGCP's reimbursement provisions are available to associates on the same tenns as it is provided to management employees.
- Verizon at its sole discretion may decide to change, alter, amend, discontinue, or terminate the VGCP, including all benefits, reimbursements, assistance, and other advantages of the VGCP, in whole or in part, for any reason, without any notice period or indemnities.
- The VGCP is an additional option for associates and does not replace or alter the Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) or any other provisions of the collective bargaining agreements.
- This agreement is non-precedent setting and shall not be cited in any other matter between the Parties, except as necessary to enforce the tenns of this agreement.

How to use the Get Certified Directory...
Be sure to review the instructions on the Get Certified Homepage before starting a certification.
Certifications are broken into categories (Business, IT, Network, and Security) then sorted alphabetically by acronym and name. This symbol (^) next to a certification indicates that the certifying organization provides an online certification exam. Each link directs you to learning materials that will help you prepare for a certification exam. (Note: All learning completed in an external pathway will appear in your Learning Portal 2.0 profile within 48 hours).
First time on LinkedIn Learning? You will be given the option to link your personal LinkedIn account to the platform. This is optional. Regardless of your choice, you will still be prompted to sign into LinkedIn Learning via Verizon Single Sign On (SSO). This step is required in order to access your license through Verizon.
