CIITS Job Categories and Evaluation Override Data in IC will be used to align certified staff who will be evaluated to a job category. Job category aligns them to the correct evaluation framework in CIITS. Job categories will be determined using Type / Alternate Type value on a person’s active assignment records in IC. – Type / Alternate Type must be the same on all of a person’s active assignment records within one school in IC. – Type/Alternate Type may be different between schools in IC. If Type/Alternate Type value is different between schools, the New field on the District Assignments tab “Evaluation Override” must be set to specify which value the person should be aligned with when determining job category. » Only needs to be set for certified staff who have different Type/Alt Type values between schools.
