KIND OF WORK Entry level student technical and paraprofessional work. Under immediate supervision, an employee in this class performs and learns to perform technical and paraprofessional work assisting state employees in technical and professional occupations related to their field of study.
Work is often project or short term in nature.
This classification differs from entry level professional classes in that incumbents must be enrolled in secondary, post-secondary or graduate study programs. Incumbents would not be expected to possess on-going program or procedural knowledge. At this level, students have generally completed at least one year of post-secondary education related to the program in which they are employed. This classification differs from the Student Worker Paraprofessional Senior in that incumbents of that class would be expected to have completed two to three years of post-secondary education related to the program in which they are employed and would be expected to work with somewhat greater freedom. Student worker classes are designed to provide students in secondary, post-secondary and graduate study with employment that assists them in reaching identifiable educational goals.
