Bargaining Unit Placement Clause Samples

Bargaining Unit Placement. The bargaining unit placement of faculty who teach distance learning courses will be consistent with existing practice for on-ground courses. Class size in an online course will be determined in accordance with existing college practices and will not exceed the class size for the same course taught on ground. Observation of a teaching faculty member’s online course for purposes of faculty evaluation will be done in the same manner as classroom observation is performed for on-ground courses. Evaluators shall be granted access to the faculty member’s online course (“guest status”) for purposes of the observation, which must be conducted in the presence of the faculty member. Student ratings may be used in a manner similar to the use of student ratings in on-ground courses, except that colleges may use the student assessment vehicle provided by the Connecticut Distance Learning Consortium (CTDLC).

Bargaining Unit Placement. Any faculty member who delivers or develops NTDI or materials for NTDI, will be placed into the bargaining unit.
