Faculty Training Quiz

The goal of the hiring training workshop was to teach faculty how to uniformly
implement the hiring process while maintaining the quality and diversity among newly hired faculty
within the Contra Costa Community College District.

The Box2a committee reviews departmental applications requesting new and
replacement faculty positions, allows departments to present their needs at a scheduled meeting,
creates a priority hiring list, and then the Academic Senate President allocates faculty positions to
be hired.

It is not necessary for the interview committee to review the applications prior
to or after the interviews because the screening committee already did that.

After the candidates final interview with the Presidential committee, references
are checked, and the President makes the final hiring selection without reconvening all the
department hiring committees for discussion.

Confidentiality and integrity surrounding the entire hiring practice is only
necessary when communicating with individuals not connected to the college.  It is acceptable
for the screening committee and the interview committee to discuss the candidates with each other,
and with employees outside the department.

Transcript verification of applicants possessing international degrees must have
already been completed prior to submitting an application, and the only accepted international
transcript verification organization accepted by the district is National Association Credential
Evaluation Services (NACES).

While the hiring committee cannot ask questions related to the candidates age,
race, religion, sexual preference, home location, they can ask the candidate about their knowledge of
the local area.

Preference does not give the part-time faculty the right to specific courses or
sections, however, but only to be offered load at their historical level, if possible.
