(a) The Board may award a Class IV standing to Industrial Arts Teachers holding a B. Sc. in Industrial Arts if it deems the qualifications to be closer to a P1A4 rating than to a P1A3. (Note: these circumstances tend to arise in respect to American degrees where education subjects are undergraduate rather than graduate as in the case in Manitoba).
(b) Where acceptable to the Board, each three years of non-teaching experience related to the duties of the Industrial Arts Teacher may be counted as one year teaching experience up to (but not beyond) the maximum as determined in Article 3.1.
