  • Level I
    This is the entry level in the series. A position at this level performs work described at the II level initially under close supervision, then with increasingly less guidance as the worker gains experience.

    Note: Calculation of experience is based on full-time, 40-hour workweeks. Part-time experience is pro-rated. Example: Twelve months of experience at 20 hours/week is equivalent to six months of experience, not one year. Also, hours worked in excess of 40 hours/week will not be credited.
