At Tennessee's state colleges and universities the staff that are classified as clerical are eligible for a salary increase if they pass the CPS (Certified Professional Secretary) exam. Library staff are classified as clerical. So basically library staff who study how to be good secretaries/administrative assistants and pass the exam get a salary increase.
I am curious if this is unique to Tennessee or if other colleges or universities classify their staff as clerical and if so whether they have a similar CPS incentive program?

Thanks,
Beverly
