Community colleges: full-time faculty.

Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges, under the administration of the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges, as one of the segments of public postsecondary education in this state. Existing law establishes community college districts throughout the state, and authorizes them to operate campuses and provide instruction to students. Existing law requires a community college district that has less than 75% of its hours of credit instruction taught by full-time instructors to apply a portion of specified state funding to increase the percentage of its hours of credit instruction taught by full-time instructors, as provided. Existing law requires the board of governors to adopt regulations that establish minimum standards regarding the percentage of hours of credit instruction taught by full-time instructors. This bill would instead require the board of governors to adopt regulations that establish minimum standards regarding the percentage of hours of credit and noncredit instruction taught by full-time instructors.
