Decisions regarding faculty reassignment

ASGC Approved Nov. 13, 2014. Updated by PBC on October 1, 2025

Faculty at Cañada College frequently engage in extensive activities beyond what is defined in the AFT contract as expected professional responsibilities. Typically, these ‘above and beyond’ activities include faculty leadership, accreditation, research, academic support programs, and faculty development/support services. Awarding reassigned time provides faculty with greater opportunity and flexibility in their schedule to engage in these activities. Reassigned time is part of a faculty member’s workload that is subtracted from the primary instructional assignment as outlined in Appendix D of the faculty contract.

The Instructional Planning Council oversees the reassigned time process on behalf of the Academic Senate. More information is available on the IPC Reassigned Time website.
