Defining Subject Area QualificationsEdit Information > Subject Area Qualifications > New/Edit Subject Area Qualification This page is accessed by adding a new Subject Area from either the “Add a Subject Area Qualification” grid box or the “Suggested subject areas from teacher’s schedule for the selected year” grid box or by editing an existing subject area qualification. NOTE: Associating more than one subject area qualification with a course/section assignment is not recommended. If more than one subject area qualification is associated with a course/teacher combination, the Work Assignment Records page for the teacher will not reflect the Highly Qualified (HQ) or Subject Matter Competency (SMC) field values set below because the page cannot determine which set of values to display for the single assignment when there are multiple values defined. Also, the Work Assignment Record Extract report will not extract the values configured below for the assignment in the report for the same reason. If you do decide to maintain multiple subject area qualifications per teacher assignment, you must enter override values for the HQ and SMC fields in order for the values to be included in the Work Assignment Record Extract report for the assignment record. | ||||
