Faculty Workload
- Through the use of workload error identification reports developed in Cognos, workload verification is maintained by the SOC department contacts, with the assistance of the Scheduling Office, before, during, and after each term.听 You are asked to review the entire prior fiscal year for accuracy in the summer to assure that workload reports that are used for CBA compliance and for budget planning are accurate.
- The 鈥渓oad factor鈥 needs to be entered such that the contact credit hours will we weighted appropriately to accurately reflect the actual workload agreement between the Department Chair and the Faculty Member.
- The College Bargain Agreement specifies 鈥淓xcept by mutual agreement, teaching and advisement of each individual's workload will not average in excess of 12 credit-contact hours per week per semester for the academic year, nor shall the average teaching load of the unit exceed the approved workload policy of the unit.鈥
- The credit contact hour conversions are defined in Appendix B of the CBA.听 For specific questions about faculty workload, please contact the Provost Office faculty HR Manager.
Load Factor Examples
- For one instructor teaching the course, enter 100.000 to reflect 100%
- For two instructors co-teaching, enter 50.000 for each to reflect 50%
- For two instructors, where one is primary and one is secondary, enter 75.000 for primary and 25.000 for secondary
- For multiple faculty teaching ONE section, the percentage should not exceed 100%
- For independent study, graduate research, etc., if faculty co-taught a student(s), each should get 50% workload.听 If faculty taught a student(s) individually, each should get a 100% workload
