Be mindful of:

• Faculty must be offered courses on overload prior to making them available as SL assignments.
• Determine whether the work is or is not CUPE 3913 bargaining unit work (see Article 2 or consult with the appropriate College Manager). Non-CUPE 3913 work must not be posted through this system, (this is an example of a Non-public posting). For example, do not post work assignments held by:
  • Retired faculty teaching a course
  • SL work assignments guaranteed to Post-doctoral Scholars in their fellowship offer; if the guarantee did not appear in the fellowship offer, then Postdoc must apply through the normal process as a CUPE Sessional
  • PhD students teaching as a part of their program as outlined in LOU 1 (Unit 2 CA) and Art. 11.05 (i)&(j) (Unit 1 CA)
• Posting, rubric, hiring, and performance review must align and focus on specific and sound required and preferred qualifications. This is how academic units defend their hiring and, if needed, discipline decisions.
• Also see: How do we hire for an unanticipated/emergency work assignment?

New vs. Edit vs. Clone

This is critical for accurate reporting. Refer to  What is the difference between Editing and Cloning Postings and Offers?

Can I create one posting for multiple sections of a course?

Where a course has sections being offered in more than one mode of delivery, the different sections shall be posted separately by format.  

Multiple sections of a work assignment of the same format can be posted together (i.e., Lecture Section 01 and 02). However, even if a Work Assignment is posted for multiple sections of a course, an Offer of Appointment must be made for each section of the assignment. This allows a Seniority Point to be accrued for each section.
