Training Increments. Faculty may receive additional pay upon completing various levels of additional education and training as described below. These increases in pay or training increments are for levels of education as shown in the salary schedule in Appendices A and C of this Agreement (for example, MA+15, MA+30). The granting of training increments will be governed by the following procedure:
1. Training increment credit must be graduate credit earned subsequent to admission to an accredited graduate school unless the accredited institution states, in writing, that such credit is transferable as legitimate graduate credit. Such credit will not be given for coursework that duplicates graduate work already completed by the faculty member in a previous degree program. Training increment credit (beyond a Bachelor’s degree) will be given for any one of the following:
a. Coursework where the content matches the instructor’s field of teaching responsibility, including coursework that matches the instructor’s field of teaching responsibility in a cross- disciplinary program. or
b. All coursework in a PhD program in the instructor’s field of teaching where the PhD program is encompassed in the minimum requirements of the job description. or
c. Coursework in the fields of education and higher education administration. Credit for any other coursework outside the faculty member’s field of teaching responsibility will not be given except as provided in b and c above.
2. Training increments will not be given for any graduate courses in which a grade of B- or less is earned if such credit is found to lower the grade point average to less than a B for that particular increment request.
3. To receive the increase in pay/training increment, the faculty member must complete the Faculty Salary Adjustment Request form, which can be found in the HR section of the website and arrange for delivery to the Office of Human Resources of the official transcript or certificate demonstrating that training has been successfully completed. A completed form and the supporting transcript or certificate must be received by the Human Resources Office before training increment credit will be processed. All adjustments to salary as a result of additional training will be effective at the beginning of the next semester succeeding the date that this set of documentation is received by the Office of Human Resources provided the set of documentation is received in Human Resources: No later than July 10th for Fall...
