Approval for Units Taken. Course work for movement on the schedule must be approved in advance. The employee must petition the Superintendent or designee for approval using the appropriate District form. Course work should consist of upper division or graduate units, extension or Continuing Education Units, which are non-repetitive, from an institution accredited by the appropriate regional agency. The course work should pertain to the employee’s teaching assignment, major or minor, or current credential requirements. The employee may seek approval for lower division course work, course work outside of the major or minor, or outside of the teaching assignment. Units available for course work connected to a conference or seminar for which approval was granted by the Superintendent or designee shall also be considered automatically approved.
