Whereas, many contingent faculty are employed at multiple institutions of higher education and represent the majority of the faculty; and

Whereas, contingent faculty are required to hold the same academic qualifications and credentials as their full-time colleagues; and

Whereas, many qualified contingent faculty continue to be rehired each academic term over many years; and

Whereas, many institutions set their own training programs and may not recognize reciprocity;

Therefore, be it resolved, that the CFT advocate at the state Chancellor’s Office to ensure that any training required or recommended by the Chancellor’s Office be equitable and transferable between colleges and districts; and

Be it finally resolved, that CFT supports legislation that state or federal mandated training be compensated equitably and transferable between colleges and districts.
