The goal for regulations for uniform hiring of teachers is to establish a calendar for hiring that is compatible with the dates budgets are completed by local governing bodies. The calendar dates, which are embodied in the three-phase employment process, establish minimum time frames to accommodate the local hiring process, offer local flexibility in including contract terms to cover unique needs and practices of the locality, and offer professional mobility for teachers.
