A person who is appointed to a professional title in which permanent appointment may be granted, must be granted a temporary appointment for the first year of that person's employment in such title when the appointment is made to a position vacated by a professional employee who is serving a probationary appointment pursuant to section 335.9 or 335.15 of this Part; otherwise the person shall be granted a term appointment, except where a temporary appointment is appropriate. Upon completion of the initial temporary or term appointment, the professional employee may be granted a further appointment in accordance with this Part. Service in a temporary appointment pursuant to this section shall be counted toward the satisfaction of the eligibility requirements for initial permanent appointment.
