Frequently asked questions

What does AB 1892 do?

(1) Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges, administered by the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges, as one of the segments of public postsecondary education in the state. Existing law requires the board to appoint a chief executive officer, known as the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges, and requires the chancellor to execute the duties and responsibilities delegated to him or her by the board. Under existing law, each community college district is administered by a governing board. Existing law establishes the Part-time Community College Faculty Health Insurance Program, which authorizes the governing board of a community college district to provide a program of health insurance for part-time faculty and their dependents. Existing law defines "part-time faculty," for the purposes of the program, as any faculty member whose teaching assignment equals or exceeds 40% of the cumulative equivalent of a minimum full-time teaching assignment. Existing law provides that specified provisions of the program shall be operative in any fiscal year only if funds are appropriated for purposes of the program in the annual Budget Act or in another measure and expresses legislative intent that ongoing funding for the program be subject to annual Budget Act appropriations. This bill would delete those limitations, thereby making those provisions of the program operative regardless of fiscal year. The bill would express the intent of the Legislature, commencing with the 2011–12 fiscal year, to appropriate sufficient funds to reimburse participating community college districts for the costs incurred by the districts in paying health insurance premiums for eligible part-time faculty pursuant to the program. (2) Existing law requires the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges, by June 15 of each year, to apportion to each community college district that establishes a health insurance program pursuant to the Part-time Community College Faculty Health Insurance Program, an amount that equals up to 12 of the total cost of the individual enrollment premiums required to be paid for the health insurance coverage of participating part-time faculty and their dependents in the district. This bill, instead, would require the chancellor to apportion to each community college that establishes a program an amount equal to the total cost of the individual enrollment premiums required to be paid for the health insurance coverage.
