Cal HR released a Personnel Management Liasons (PML) that describes changes to the minimum qualifications of the Career Executive Assignment (CEA). Since SB 99 went into effect on September 22, 2015, CEA recruitment is now open to the public and not just for state workers, therefore the potential candidate pool has more competition.
SB 99 also implements some changes in reinstatement rights. Soon CalHR will release an updated CEA booklet that includes these updates.
