Summary

The Teachers' Retirement Law creates the State Teachers' Retirement System and State Teachers' Retirement Plan for the purpose of providing teachers and other specified employees with financially sound retirement plans, and vests administration of the system and the plan with the Teachers' Retirement Board. That law defines the term "full time" as the days or hours of creditable service an employer requires a class of employees to perform in a school year in order to earn the compensation earnable, as defined, and provides that one measure of the minimum standard for full time in community colleges is 875 instructional hours per school year for all instructors employed in adult education programs. That law requires each collective bargaining agreement or employment agreement that applies to specified members of the system to, among other things, specify the number of hours of creditable service that equals full time for those members. This bill would additionally require each collective bargaining agreement or employment agreement to specify the courses for which instructors are subject to the 875-hour requirement for any agreement entered into, extended, renewed, or amended on or after January 1, 2017. The bill would also provide that an instructor not subject to the 875-hour requirement is subject to one of two other specified hour requirements.
