Sask Polytech is now recognizing related journeyperson certification as credit towards an educational supplement. Members may recall that this was an issue that was at the bargaining table. As indicted in the 2012 -17 CBA the parties agreed that a review of the collective agreement language, as it related to dual/multiple journeyperson certificates, would occur. That review has been completed and has resulted in Sask Polytech confirming that a second related journeyperson certification would be appropriately compensated as per Appendix B of the collective agreement. As in all education supplements it is the responsibility of the employee to present the required documentation to the HR office and complete the required application.
