Q: I am planning to take classes to help me advance on the salary schedule. How do I make sure these courses will “count” toward advancement?

A: Your course must be from an accredited university/college and be for a grade.

Q: How can I check how many credits/union the district has on record and/or how can I submit my transcript for evaluation?

A: Complete the Certificated - Transcript Submission Evaluation or Balance Inquiry Request form here. You will have a chance to review our calculations and request corrections if needed.

Q: When do I have to submit transcripts?

A: You must submit transcripts by November 15th or July 1st (to apply at the beginning of the next year). If transcripts are not available by November 15th, a letter of verification from the university or college specifying that the work has been completed will suffice, but this must be submitted by November 15th. To submit transcripts, you must bring SEALED, official transcripts in person to Human Resources at 2020 Bonar Street Suite 206 Berkeley CA 94702, Attention to Betty James. Electronic transcripts can also be emailed to transcripts@berkeley.net. If the District does not process your electronic transcripts before they expire, unofficial transcripts will be accepted.
