Article 20: Faculty Service Areas

​

• 20.1 The term “Faculty Service Area” means a service or instructional subject area or group of related services or instructional subject areas in which service is performed by faculty. The term “eligibility criteria” refers to criteria by which a faculty member is deemed competent to render service in a faculty service area.

​​

• 20.2 The Faculty Service Area (FSA) process is a negotiated process and is separate from each local Academic Senate’s determined eligibility of qualification for teaching. The FSA only applies in the event of a District-wide reduction in force or program reduction or elimination, allowing the faculty member to bump into a discipline for which they hold the FSA.

​​

• 20.3 Faculty Service Areas shall be aligned with the Disciplines List, as found in the CCCCO Minimum Qualifications for Faculty and Administrators in California Community Colleges, current edition. The FSA Committee will convene when modifications occur to this list due to State approved revisions. (See 20.8.3 below) Agreement - YFA/Yosemite Community College District July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2026.

​​

• 20.4 The Human Resource Office shall be responsible for maintaining records of Faculty Service Area assignments and shall list each faculty member’s approved FSAs in their personnel file.
