a. Units in excess of a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree must be taken subsequent to the awarding of these degrees.
b. Unit members shall have their salaries adjusted retroactively for the school year upon submission of additional units by September 15 of the current school year.
c. Units shall not be earned or credited for salary schedule advancement if the District has either provided paid release time or compensated the unit member for time spent in attendance at the training unless the units are awarded for extra work performed by the unit member outside the training. If no extra work is performed outside the training and the unit member wants the units to apply to advancement on the salary schedule, he/she may decline the compensation for time spent in attendance at the training to earn the units instead. The unit member shall notify the District of this option using the Units Approval Form.

Unit members are strongly encouraged to complete the Units Approval Form in advance for a training/course that is not District-sponsored.
