Facilitators. All non-instructional facilitator positions available for the following academic year, as determined by the Vice President of Instruction or designee, will be provided to the Association by March 15 for review. The Association may submit its recommendations for non-instructional facilitators and the justification or rationale for each by April 1. All facilitator positions will be posted by May 1. Facilitators will assume their responsibilities in the fall for a term of one year. Each non-instructional facilitator position will be identified in a job description which will include the duties and the number of hours required to complete the assignment as determined by the District. Full-time faculty applying for any approved facilitator position (instructional or non-instructional) will submit a letter of application detailing their qualifications, goals and other elements in line with the facilitator job descriptions posted by the District. Full-time faculty will have ten working days from the day the job is posted to apply via a letter of interest to the Vice President of Instruction or their posted designee. Each month, facilitators will provide to the Vice President of Instruction or authorized designee a timesheet of hours completed, and a report detailing their goals, activities, and challenges for that month. Partial months can be combined with the next or previous month (for example, mid-February for Spring semester can be combined with March; May and June can be combined). Facilitator positions left unfilled by the last working day of May shall be posted a second time for full-time faculty interest. If no full-time faculty member applies for a facilitator position by the end of the Spring semester, then the District can take other steps to fill the position as permitted by law. Facilitators will be compensated each semester with reassigned time. For facilitator work in Summer and Winter sessions, current facilitators may request approval for additional hours to complete work, not to exceed 10 hours per week at the full-time faculty member’s current hourly rate. A letter from the full- time faculty facilitator detailing the rationale for Summer and Winter facilitator compensation shall be submitted to the Vice President of Instruction no later than mid-May for Summer sessions, and mid-November for Winter sessions. Facilitators who work Summer and Winter sessions will be compensated in two equal installments each session with a stipend based on the assigned hours multiplied by the current applicable hourly/unit rate (Appendix C). No facilitator will be required to work in Winter/Summer sessions. If required by state and federal agencies or for compliance to accreditation standards the following facilitator positions shall be offered each year:
