Negotiations Update 31 October 2024

Happy Halloween!


Today’s Negotiations were anything but spooky. Excited to announce that we got some real treats in terms of Class Caps. 


Here is an overview of our negotiations meeting from October 31, 2024: 


🍬MOU_Article 8


  • The District reviewed our initial proposal and gave a few updates and corrections involving cross-listed classes or deactivated courses. 

  • AND we agreed! We are so excited to announce that all classes have been negotiated. We expect an updated list from Instruction soon so that we can start our next round of class cap adjustment requests. Stay tuned!


🍬MOU_CSIT


  • Both parties agreed on a separate MOU for CSIT classes that had been negotiated and agreed upon over the summer. 


🍬MOU_Large Class Caps Amendment


  • The Large Class Caps MOU was amended to include a class that had been missed in the initial proposal


Discussion Items


  • ISA Updates:  The District gave us updates on the status of open ISA positions. 

  • Mandated Training for Part-time Faculty: PFF asked about compensation for faculty who are not currently teaching. The District clarified that faculty would still be compensated to complete these trainings though they aren’t required until the faculty member has an assignment. 

  • Paystub and Identity Theft Protections: PFF raised concerns about identity protection following recent payroll errors. The District is working to address these issues and will provide communication about credit monitoring options. 

  • Dues Collection Errors: PFF reminded the District of additional payroll errors that have resulted in missed dues collection. The District reiterated that they are committed to addressing these issues. 

  • Academic Calendar Update: The District acknowledged the need for negotiation on calendar issues as soon as possible to avoid similar situations in the future. The District committed to bringing correct calendars to negotiate. 

  • Benefits - Given the current situation with Anthem potentially being dropped by providers, the District assured us they are monitoring the situation and will explore alternative plans through CSIC.
