INFORMATION SHEET

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT TIME

We are requesting time be allowed within the year for every-
one to return to industry and update our skills. A teacher has
an obligation to the student to be aware of the latest advances in

his field. College council says NO to this request.

SHIFT DIFFERENTIAL

Many of our instructors work a split shift (6 hours duty in
a 13 hour span)--or a midnight shift and we feel that these people
should be entitled to compensation. Council does not recognize

any difference in unsocial shifts.

STUDENT CONTACT HOURS

Student contact hours vary between 25-30 hours per week. All.
related duties; councelling, marking, course preparation are done
in the instructors own time. We feel that this is too heavy a work

load to be an effective instructor.

SALARY

Latest offer: 12% over 15 months (The annual equivalent is 10.6%)
