20.6 PROMOTION AND TRANSFER

INTRODUCTION

KSU is committed to providing career development opportunities for its employees. In seeking to foster an open and supportive environment which will aid personal growth, the University takes the position that individuals are responsible for the planning and management of their own careers. To facilitate such personal development, the University has established a wide range of policies and programs, including an internal search policy, the classification system for administrative staff, part-time employment opportunities, tuition assistance, Human Resources development programs and the job posting system.

A. PURPOSE

To promote career advancement, the University offers the means for full time and part-time employees to transfer from their current position to other positions within KSU for which they are qualified.

B. SCOPE

Full-time or part-time employees may apply for any posted position for which they are qualified after successfully completing the 90-day introductory period and remaining in the same job for six (6) months.

When an employee has been offered another position, the prospective supervisor shall notify the employee's current supervisor a minimum of ten (10) working days in advance of the actual scheduled transfer date. The two supervisors are expected to arrange a transition time that is reasonably convenient to both parties. If the supervisors do not reach an agreement on a reasonable transition date, the transfer shall take place at the start of the eleventh (11th) workday from the date the employee notified the department.
