Common use of TERM CONTRACTS Clause in Contracts

TERM CONTRACTS. ‌ A term contract means a contract providing for employment throughout a semester with a workload of fifty percent or greater of the normal full-time load. A term contract may be for either part-time or full-time employment, will be for a definite term not to exceed one (1) fiscal year, and will terminate automatically at the end of the term. Such contracts are renewable solely at the discretion of the Board. Reasons for the issuance of term contracts may include, but are not limited to, the following: funding by grants or special projects outside the Board's legislative appropriation, temporary replacement of a faculty unit member on educational or other leave of absence, a temporary manpower need created for the interim of a job search, for an unanticipated increased workload, or for a vacancy within a school term where it is more appropriate to fill the position temporarily. If a faculty unit member's contract is changed to a probationary contract, the number of years the faculty unit member has served under term contracts may be credited, at the discretion of the Board, towards fulfillment of the period necessary for consideration for a continuing contract. Term contracts will not be used to avoid the proper application and use of probationary or continuing contracts. Faculty unit members with term contracts will be evaluated at least once per year and informed of any deficiencies. Evaluations and plans to correct deficiencies will be conducted in accordance with Article XI, Evaluation.
