A vocational industrial teacher who holds a Journeyman Certificate and who obtained from the Department of Education and Training of Manitoba at least a P1 rating will be classified as Class 4 by the Lakeshore School Division for salary purposes. If the teacher rating for grant purposes by the Department of Education and Training is higher than Class 4, the teacher will be classified according to the Department rating.
A vocational industrial teacher who holds a Journeyman Certificate will be granted increments for "related work experience" up to a maximum of 6 years. "Related work experience" shall be experience for which a Journeyman's Certificate was needed for the work performed. Experience beyond this definition may be granted at the discretion of the School Board. If a Vocational Industrial teacher with a Journeyman Certificate has taught elsewhere than in the Lakeshore School Division without at least one year of recognized teacher training by the Department of Education and Training, his/her teaching experience shall be recognized as "related experience only", and will be included in the maximum 6 years allowed for related experience.
If the above related experience clause will result in lower salary for any one of the Vocational Industrial teachers presently employed by the Lakeshore School Division, no cut in salary will be made. However, there will be no salary increases granted until that teacher is entitled to higher salary because of further teaching experience.
A teacher who holds a permanent Vocational Industrial Certificate and a Bachelor of Education degree will be paid at the rate of Class 5 or according to the Department salary classification, whichever is higher.
