Like you, Extension experience counts year for year. We do a somewhat annual salary regression. It indicated that every year of Extension experience in Tennessee Extension is worth $740. So, for Extension experience we multiply years of experience times $740 and add that to base for BS or MS degrees. If experience is education but not Extension we multiply by $640, for all other experience we multiply by $540. The amount is changed when a new regression indicates a differential. We do not put faculty in county offices.

I am putting together some information, in hopes to develop a new system of awarding salaries to newly hired County Agents with high levels of work experience. I was hoping to get some feedback from your current practices. We currently have no "cap" on starting salaries, but frequently hire Agents from other states with over 25 years of experience. Our current salary worksheet will provide full credit for each year of professional work experience, and Extension experience awards the highest credit amount, bringing these starting salaries to numbers that skew our current salary averages and trump over existing employee's salaries. Do any of you have ideas or current practices that might produce a more leveled effect? Also, are there any of you that currently place Faculty in the County Offices in lieu of a Staff Chair.
