Exceptions to these limitations can be made only upon mutual agreement of the faculty member and the District. Members of the unit who are compensated according to the hourly academic salary schedule are paid by the hour, not by FLCs. Each course has a nominal load credit associated with it based on the typical number of contract hours for which it is scheduled. No adjustment is made in the nominal load credit for routinely expected variations in the actual total contract hours per semester. The typical range for one FLC is 16 to 18 contact hours per semester for lecture. A corresponding range of contact hours for other types of classroom assignments is based on equivalence factors spelled out in this appendix.

Expanding student access, program need and faculty desire and preparation to teach a distance education course shall be the primary determining factors when the College decides to offer a course through distance education. There will be no reduction in force of faculty as a result of the College's participation in distance education. The parties agree that the use of such technology shall not be used to reduce, eliminate or consolidate faculty positions within the District. Distance Education means instruction in which the instructor and student are separated by distance and interact through the assistance of communication technology. A distance education course/section or session is defined as the use of technology utilized 51 percent or more of the time to deliver instruction during the course term and where the student and instructor are separated by distance. The delivery of instruction in the distance education modality can use the Internet, email, video and class lecture to deliver instruction (hybrid course). However, if the use of the combined mediated technology is 50 percent or less, or the student and instructor are not separated by distance, the course/section/session is considered a classroom-based traditional course/section/session. (State Chancellor’s Office Regulations and Guidelines on Distance Education Section 55205)
