I am in ITEP. How do I petition to earn post-baccalaureate units so that I may earn a higher salary once I begin working as a teacher?

ITEP students may petition for post-BA credit for professional education (EED & SPED) courses completed during their final Year beyond 120 units.  This process is NOT stating that the requirements were not needed as part of your ITEP degree but rather that the units may be footnoted as post baccalaureate for the purpose placement in a school district’s salary scale.
