Negotiating Higher Pay
120 Semester hours.
Paraprofessional - (City withheld for privacy), Illinois, United States
I have passed the Basic Skills Test and you would think with 120 hours, and a NCLB Highly Qualified assistant, I would earn more. I am returning to college to get my degree, and will open my own small parent-child center. Working for myself seems to be the only way. I love the methods that I use to educate students. The principals (some) are bullies. They do not know about treating people the way you want to be treated.

After being off probation and told you would have an increase to bring you up to where you should be, how should you handle this?

Relevant Education
Web Developer - (City withheld for privacy), Minnesota, United States
I've found that pursuing Continue Education and/or Graduate Certificate programs from accredited institutions shows your commitment to the company and the kind of job you want to do for them. For me, it has paid off in promotions and pay increases well in excess of tuition costs.
