SECTION 44060-44069
44060. The purpose of this article is to provide a basis of determination as to what constitutes a supervisory or administrative classified position or a position requiring certification qualifications not clearly defined in other sections of this code; to provide an interchange of qualified personnel between the certificated and classified services of the public school systems; and to secure rights and benefits to employees moving between the two services, all to the end of assuring better educational systems for the students of the public school systems. The provisions of this article are not intended, nor may they be construed, to invalidate any other sections of this code which were enacted prior to the enactment of this article, relating to positions requiring certification qualifications or the classified service covered in Article 6 (commencing with Section 45240) of Chapter 5 of this part, unless specifically provided herein.

His return to certificated service at any time within the 39 months shall be treated as if there had not been an interruption in his certificated service. 44062. If a person employed by the county superintendent of schools in a position not requiring certification qualifications is assigned to a position under the same superintendent requiring certification qualifications, the employee shall retain all sick leave, vacation, and other rights and benefits accumulated by him at the time of assignment to the position requiring certification qualifications. All seniority and permanency rights shall be secured to such an employee for a period of 39 months from the date of his acceptance of the certificated position.

All seniority and tenure rights accumulated by the employee at the time of assignment to the position in the classified service shall be secured to the employee during the period of time he or she occupies a position in the classified service.
