Who is eligible

Who it applies to

Differs by hire date and appointment status. Fully appointed teachers hired on or after September 1, 2019 must earn at least 18 A+ credits to get the salary differential (unless they already hold an additional doctorate or an approved related additional master's); those hired on or after September 1, 2017 but before September 1, 2019 need at least 6 A+ credits (unless the differential was earned before September 1, 2019); those hired before September 1, 2017 need no A+ credits (if they choose to use A+ credits, minimum 6). Only fully appointed teachers may receive A+ or P credit toward the differential; O-Status (per diem) teachers are not eligible for salary differentials.

“If you are a fully appointed teacher hired on or after September 1, 2019 then you must obtain a minimum of 18 A+ credits in order to earn your salary differential”
