1.	Pay is calculated using three variables:

	A.	The type of instruction, i.e., lab or lecture. The lecture and/or laboratory designation for each course is established by the curriculum committee and listed in the approved course outline.

	B.	The total number of semester course hours scheduled. (Combined sections are normally compensated as a single course.)

	C.	The pay level of the individual instructor.

2.	Gross pay for a course is based upon a flat rate of pay per semester course hour, multiplied by the number of assigned semester course hours as established by the curriculum committee and listed in the approved course outline. Note: A semester course hour is equal to meeting a class one hour per week for each week of the semester.

		Example A. A typical 3 unit lecture class, meeting 3 hours per week, for a full semester, will earn 3 semester course hours of gross pay. Example B. A typical 3 unit lecture class, meeting 6 hours weekly, for ½ semester, will earn 3 semester course hours of gross pay.

3.	Courses with a combination of lecture and laboratory designated hours will be paid according to the proportional split of those hours scheduled.

4.	Full-time non-credit faculty teaching an overload for extra pay shall be placed on Step 3.

5.	All instructors must meet minimum qualifications for the discipline, or have established equivalency verification, or hold appropriate certification.
