Exhibit 8: Overload and Alternative Teaching Methods
Guidelines for overload and alternative teaching compensation, including enrollment thresholds, adjunct and overload rates, late-fall pay, I-Can network compensation, and approval requirements for online course development.
On-Campus Adjunct/CCC Overload
The set threshold of student enrollment will be announced on or before July 1 during annual negotiations to determine the adjunct and overload calculation. Enrollment levels below the set threshold will only run if prior approval occurs.
Prior approval will happen if the faculty member and Vice President of Academic Affairs deem the course necessary for a student to graduate within a standard academic time frame. The Vice President of Academic Affairs reserves the right to consolidate duplicative course offerings if there are multiple course offerings during the same term.
- Regular semester and summer courses will be paid $685 per credit hour.
- Late fall courses will be paid $700 per credit hour due to the compressed timeframe and work required during the holiday season.
- Instructors teaching on the I-Can network will be paid $100 per additional location.
Online Course Development
The Professional Employee must receive prior approval before developing a new online course. After completion, the course will be reviewed by a person appointed by the Vice President of Academic Affairs for quality and preparedness. Once the course is approved, offered, and taught, the Professional Employee will receive a supplemental contract at a rate of $400 per credit hour for the new course design. Each course development will only be paid once, and redesigns will not be compensated.
