<p class="MsoNormal">Good morning,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The State of Indiana is reviewing training for the Disability Claims Adjudicator classification series. Does your state provide any training incentives and/or pay increases within the same job classification when completing training during
the first 3 years of employment? Indiana just completed a comprehensive compensation study that re-evaluated our job classification salaries and aligned with market data. I have included more specific questions below and I have attached our Disability Claims
Adjudicator 3 and Disability Claims Adjudicator 2 job profiles as well. <o:p></o:p></p>
