Qualification Interpretations

Experience 

  • Years of experience is based on full-time experience (i.e. 40 hours/week)
  • Volunteer experience must indicate hours/week to be counted toward meeting experience requirements
  • Titles without an explanation of duties are not acceptable in determining whether an applicant has specific experience (e.g. the title of Director does not indicate someone has supervisory experience)

ASU’s equivalency phrase (i.e. "any equivalent combination of education and/or experience from which comparable knowledge, skills and abilities have been achieved")

  • This can only be interpreted as one year of experience is equal to one year of education or vice versa
  • One year of education is equal to 30 credit hours
  • A bachelor’s degree is equal to four years of experience; a master’s degree is equal to six years of experience; a doctorate is equal to eight years of experience. When a degree is counted as the equivalent of experience, the degree must be in a discipline that is relevant to the experience; when experience is counted as equivalent to a degree, the experience must be relevant to the discipline(s) of the required degree
  • Dates of attendance at a post-secondary institution do not indicate whether the applicant meets the equivalency interpretation unless credit hours earned are provided or an earned degree is identified

Degrees

  • Must be complete at the time of application for a classified, service professional or administrative position if a degree is a required qualification
  • Must be complete at the start of the appointment for faculty and academic professional appointments if a degree is a required qualification

ASU Supervisory Academy

  • Certified completion of ASU's "Supervisory Academy" counts as one year of supervisory experience
  • Certified completion of ASU's "Stepping into Leadership" program counts as six months of supervisory experience

OVPREA Infrastructure Project Internship

  • This program consists of the Research Administration Certificate Program, Internship Program, and Mentoring; certified completion of these three programs counts as one year of directly related research administration experience

NOTE: Direct knowledge of an applicant’s qualifications may NOT be used in determining whether the applicant meets qualifications. When evaluating whom to interview, only the information provided via the application materials may be used to determine whether an applicant meets advertised qualifications
