INCENTIVE OPPORTUNITES OFFERED TO NON-INSTRUCTIONAL STAFF

CERTIFIED ACHIEVEMENT PROGRAM (CAP)

The Certified Achievement Program is designed to offer permanent, full-time members of the secretarial/clerical bargaining units an incentive to improve the skills required for current positions, as well as to help them qualify for promotional opportunities.  Temporary employees are not eligible to apply for CAP incentives until their status becomes full-time or permanent part time.  Employees on probation are not eligible to apply for CAP incentives until their probation period has ended.  However, these employees may begin to accumulate credit towards this incentive by attending District professional development activities and/or taking college, community, and vocational classes while temporary or on probation.

The CAP committee created under Article 7 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement between the Federation of Public Employees (Clerical/Secretarial) and The School Board of Broward County, Florida is comprised of 6 members who create the procedures to carry out the program. The committee consists of 2 members from the Federation of Public Employees (FOPE), 2 members from the Confidential Office Personnel Association (COPA) and 2 members selected by the Superintendent.
