Pay Overview
Instructors are paid one of two ways:
- By the instructor’s department. The department will establish the instructor’s rate of pay and will take care of hiring paperwork.
- By Extended Campus, per the request of the instructor’s department.
What is the pay policy?
Effective Fall term 2005 and continuing thereafter, instructors who are paid directly by Ecampus at the request of their departments will be paid up to a maximum of 180 Student Credit Hours (SCH) per term (60 students in
3 - credit courses; 45 students in 4 - credit courses), with these provisos:
-
Pay rates will be: $55 per undergraduate SCH and $85 per graduate SCH;
-
The 180 SCH limit will be calculated per Instructor per term, not per course;
-
At 180 undergraduate SCH, the pay would equal $9900;
-
If all 180 SCH were graduate level, the maximum pay would be $15,300 (very unlikely due to lower enrollments in graduate courses);
-
These SCH can be a mix/match of undergraduate or graduate, but the overall maximum is 180 SCH per term;
-
This 180 SCH cap will also apply to the maximum allowed for overload pay;
-
180 SCH is equivalent to a 0.49 Full Time Equivalency (FTE) position.
What information is needed for hiring purposes?
If Ecampus has been instructed to pay the instructor, hiring paperwork must be submitted to Human Resources. Below is a list of items needed in order to complete the paperwork.
- Résumé or C.V.
- copy of driver’s license
- copy of social security card
- check with VOID written across the front if direct deposit of pay check is requested
