Necessary Qualifications. It will be the Board option to provide additional training for existing employees in their present job classification when it is recognized the employee does not possess the necessary qualifications required. It will be the employee’s responsibility to possess or obtain the necessary educational and/or training to meet the necessary qualification for other classification being bid on. This Section will not serve as a bar to benefits under Section 21.15.
