Benefits of FLAC

Part-time faculty who teach full-term assignments will receive pay during the first pay period after the course begins. An instructor receiving health benefits will automatically have their pay extended so that deductions for premiums will continue in order to ensure that insurance coverage remains intact. If an instructor who previously received benefits drops below eligibility, pay will not be extended for that semester, unless a new request is made to extend pay over the breaks.

Pay for short-term courses will be divided by the number of paychecks within the start and end date of the course part-of-term.

Supplemental Pay

Part-time faculty, with the approval of the Dean, are entitled to ten hours of pay per term to perform instructional related work outside the classroom that may include attendance at departmental meetings, orientations, Convocation, Faculty Focus Day, and CTL Training. Part-time faculty shall be paid $34.00 an hour for the instructional-related work outside the classroom. 

Other required or optional departmental activities are part of the regular workload. Instructors will receive the rate of pay per each course taught and will perform required duties on campus as determined by their Dean. This shall include all meetings, preparations, and other professional duties as determined by their Dean, other than the once- per- term department meetings or orientations previously mentioned.
