Education and child care salary data from the National Compensation Survey is provided as a service to non-WageAccess® salary survey participants. National Compensation Survey data is not incorporated into the WageAccess® salary survey results.

2The projected education and child care salaries have been derived through the application of a proprietary aging formula. This formula uses a combination of statistical metrics, including the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), BLS-reported annual changes in national salary data, actual reported WageAccess® salary data trends and other economic parameters.

The aging process is designed to provide a more accurate representation of current education and child care salary levels based on historical salary data. However, the assumptions made and the calculations applied to the education and child care salaries during the aging process may be flawed and the resulting projected education and child care salaries, as presented on this page, may not actually represent current or valid pay levels for any particular position or any particular market.

The WageAccess® Compensation and Benefits Survey is a service of Synergy Management Solutions, Inc.
