The PROTEC17 Professional Development Committee is established in accordance with Article 23 of the PROTEC17 CBA to review, approve and communicate funding requests for professional development as it pertains to an employee’s current position, for another City position in their classification series, or in reasonably related work. For details, please refer to the PROTEC17 Professional Development Plan Document.
