When proposals are developed that may require a waiver of the Certified Professional Employment Document (CPED), the following process will be used: 1. The building administrator(s) will provide a description of the proposal to the Human Resources (HR) Generalist. The HR Generalist will meet with the building administrator(s) and Natrona County Education Association (NCEA) President to determine if the proposal requires a waiver to the CPED. 2. If a waiver is required, the building administrator(s), HR Generalist, and NCEA President will meet with all affected certified staff to discuss the proposed waiver and address questions or concerns. The HR Generalist will notify the Associate Superintendent of Human Resources of the request. 3. The NCEA President will offer to meet with NCEA building members to discuss any additional questions or concerns. 4. The NCEA President will work with the building administrator(s), HR Generalist, and leadership team to address unresolved concerns or questions. 5.

The form will include the specific section(s) of the CPED to be waived, the time period for which the waiver is proposed, and a detailed description of any proposed changes to compensation or benefits.
