Advancement to Higher Level. To advance to the next horizontal lane on the salary schedule, the employee must present the required hours supported by official transcripts and/or a diploma to the personnel office not later than October 1. Midyear lane changes must be submitted to the personnel office not later than February 1. Movement from the Bachelor's level to the Master's level requires a Master's Degree.
