ACADEMIC AFFAIRS AA Process: Part-time Faculty “Course Scheduling Pool” Overview of Purpose: The College establishes a Course Scheduling Pool, in accordance with Article 15.7 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement between CNM and the CNM Employees Union. Its purpose is to create stability in course assignments for approved veteran parttime faculty members consistent with operational needs in the academic schools on an annual basis. Coordination: Associate deans and schedule support staff in the academic schools. Beginning of Process: Eligible faculty members identify their interest in being considered for the Pool when submitting their preferences for the coming fall term. End of Process: The assignment schedule for the remainder of the academic year occurs as normal, with Pool members receiving initial offers averaging at least 10 credit hours per term for each term. Definitions: Veteran part-time faculty member: Instructors who have taught at the College for at least 6 semesters since 1993 without a three-term break, in accordance with Article 15 of the CBA.

Associate deans determine whether and where need exists for faculty to be included in the Course Scheduling Pool Eligible faculty members identify their interest in being considered for the Pool when submitting their preferences for the coming fall term. Associate deans determine who will be included in the Pool. Academic schools notify selected faculty no later than 3 weeks after receiving the preferences and notice of interest. After selected faculty confirm their selection into the Pool, academic schools notify those faculty not selected into the Pool. Academic Schools notify their HR representative and the Senior Labor and Employee Relations Office of which faculty are selected into the Pool. Associate deans or designees complete the assignment process for the coming fall term. The assignment schedule for the remainder of the academic year occurs as normal, with Pool members receiving initial offers averaging at least 10 credit hours per term for each term during their inclusion year. Changes to pool status for a faculty member would be sent to the faculty member in writing and to HR. Review 1. At the conclusion of the summer assignment process in the pilot program’s initial year, associate deans will review the process and provide an assessment of its effectiveness. 2. If operational changes are deemed necessary after the initial pilot year, the associate deans will revise the process and report changes to appropriate stakeholders. 3. CNM’s Senior Labor and Employee Relations Office may request an assessment of the process if the Course Scheduling Pool becomes the subject of bargaining.
