§ 87471 Occupational Instructor Service Exclusion

Key Takeaways

  • •Teaching at special job training centers doesn't count toward becoming a full-time community college teacher.
  • •If you were already a full-time teacher and then moved to teach at these centers, this rule doesn’t affect you.
  • •If you were already a full-time teacher at these centers before this law started, nothing changes for you.

Example

A teacher works part-time at a job training center while trying to become a full-time community college teacher.

The time they spend teaching at the job training center doesn’t count toward the experience needed to become a full-time community college teacher.
