Continued education on the part of licensed employees may entitle them to advancement on the salary schedule. Licensed employees who have completed additional hours will be considered for advancement on the salary schedule. The Wapello Education Association is the designated body to approve courses to allow horizontal movement on the certified staff salary schedule. The current criterion has been agreed to by the Board and the Association as follows:
Licensed employees who wish to obtain additional education for advancement on the salary schedule must notify the superintendent anytime during the school year proceeding the actual year when advancement occurs.
The requirements stated in the Master Contract between licensed employees in a certified collective-bargaining unit and the board regarding continued education credit of such employees shall be followed.
