1.3. Is there a pay differentiation based on my degree (e.g., Master’s, Ph.D., multiple degrees, etc.)?

There is no difference in pay for higher or multiple degrees. However, if you are a certified teacher in California, you will receive a different rate when working on the Smarter Balanced project.

Note: Temporary Scoring Monitors, Scoring Directors, and Team Leaders receive higher pay as well. However, you cannot apply for these positions. Scoring Managers will determine who will be offered these positions for every project.
