The Master Plan Verification Unit provides for the payment of differentials and incentive stipends to qualified employees who are appropriately assigned to programs included in the Master Plan for English Learners. The payments were instituted to enhance the quality of services provided to identified limited-English-proficient (LEP) English Language Learners (ELLs), to help LAUSD recruit and retain qualified teachers for LEP students, and to serve as an incentive for employees to upgrade qualifications and request or accept assignments utilizing special qualifications in Master Plan.
