All Bay 10 districts pay PT classroom faculty by load, except SMCCCD, Ohlone & Peralta, which still pay by hour.
Calculation to translate SMCCCD, Ohlone & Peralta hourly rate to 3-unit load:
Hourly Rate x Hours/Week (3) x Weeks/Semester (17.5) + Office Hour Rate x Weeks/Semester (17.5) [Note: While we set weeks per semester per unit at 17.5, the number of contact hours per unit can actually range between 16 and 18.]

All Bay 10 districts have set PT classroom faculty pay as a specific percentage of FT faculty pay, except SMCCCD & Ohlone (whose PT classroom faculty pay is not set in relation to FT faculty pay, so the percentage of their PT to FT pay varies depending on step and column.)

Basic Aid”/”Community-supported districts: SMCCCD, Marin, Mission/W. Valley, San Jose/Evergreen
