A salary point is a unit of measurement used by the District to determine placement/advancement on the salary table. A salary point is equivalent to one semester unit or 1.5 quarter units. As defined by the University of California, a semester unit requires a minimum of 15 contact hours with an instructor and 30 hours of outside preparation; one quarter unit requires a minimum of 10 contact hours with an instructor and 20 hours of outside preparation. One quarter unit is equivalent to 2/3 of a semester unit or .667 of a semester unit.

1 semester unit = 1 salary point

1 quarter unit = .667 of a salary point (e.g., 12 quarter units = 8 salary points)

When an application for salary credit is submitted to the Salary Allocation Unit, receipts that include any salary point/multiculture experience credit granted for that submission and total salary points on file are sent to the employee. It is recommended that employees keep these receipts for their personal records or, if necessary, email the Salary Allocation Unit with any questions or concerns.
