  • Professional Growth ‌ The policy of the District shall be to encourage continued and active participation on the part of classified employees in a program of professional growth activities designed to improve service to students and the District, and to assist in the personal and professional development of the employee. Professional growth is designed as a continuous purposeful program of study/training to retain and extend the high standards of the classified employees. The purpose of this program will be: 1. To improve the standard of service of the classified staff; 2. To extend and constantly improve the standards of on-the-job performance; 3. To provide opportunities for personal growth and advancement and thereby exert a concerted effort to retain qualified classified personnel. The policy shall be interpreted and implemented as follows: 1. Professional growth credit shall be given for unit credit collegiate-level coursework. Non- collegiate courses shall be evaluated on a case-by-case basis by the employee’s immediate supervisor and the Chief Human Resources Officer or designee. 2.

If the credit is not job-related to the new position, the credit will not be carried over. c. In both “a” and “b” above, the appeal process of Paragraph 5 shall apply. 7.
