In addition, academic degrees and units earned from an institution prior to its accreditation may be considered for salary placement and advancement upon application for such credit, and only if such course work was either (1) completed during that institution’s candidacy for accreditation, or (2) earned prior to candidacy, but has been certified by the institution as substantially equivalent in content and instruction as those offered under accreditation. Official transcripts are to be delivered unopened and sealed to the hiring manager or SDCCD/Human Resources.
