Flexible Calendar: Guidelines for the Implementation of the Flexible Calendar Program

Implementation of the flexible calendar program at the pilot colleges involved reforming the instructional calendar to accommodate instruction free days for faculty development activities. The use of flexible calendar days was accomplished through a shifting of the traditional calendar. With the success of the pilot programs, legislation (Assembly Bill 1149) was drafted in 1981 that allowed all colleges the option of adopting a flexible calendar program.

Faculty Development Policy Guidelines

California Community College reform has generated a flurry of faculty and staff development questions.

Rather, it addresses significant faculty development policy issues and provides guidelines for senate leaders in the interest of maintaining academic and professional integrity.
