A teacher holding a valid and subsisting special certificate for vocational industrial education, vocational agriculture, or their equivalents, or special permission from the Director of Professional Certification to teach in such an area, and assigned to teach a recognized vocational program, and whose enrolment in the Red River College Vocational Teacher Education Program is not yet confirmed by Manitoba Teacher Certification and Records shall be paid a starting salary equal to the first step of the class four (4) on the current salary schedule, as provided in Article 7 – Salaries.
As soon as the Division has received these confirmations the teacher’s salary shall be adjusted retroactively to his or her placement on the salary scale as stipulated in Article 6.03.
If the employee is recognized as less than class four (4) the employee must pay back the difference between the higher rate and lower rate within that school year or as mutually agreed by the teacher and the Division.
