AFT Resolution
WORK EXPERIENCE CREDIT
WHEREAS, there are almost as many different methods of granting credit to teachers for prior experience as there are school systems; and
WHEREAS, often teachers do not receive full credit for prior experience when they change positions, particularly when they move to a different state; and
WHEREAS, it is imperative to a teacher's professional position to be compensated for all of his accumulated experience:
RESOLVED, that the American Federation of Teachers urge its affiliates to work to obtain agreements which will give teachers full credit for their teaching experience.
