The University of British Columbia and the Faculty Association of The University of British Columbia have agreed on the following conditions of appointment for program directors in the Centre for Continuing Education of The University of British Columbia. Wherever in this Agreement the singular or masculine is used, the reference shall include the plural or feminine where the context so requires. The term of every appointment, and the termination date, shall be clearly stated on the appointment notice received by the appointee. Term appointments with review are appointments for a specified term, normally for two years. They carry the implication that the appointee will be considered for a confirmed appointment in accordance with the criteria and procedures described below.
Any person holding an appointment with review is eligible for a confirmed appointment.
By the end of an appointee's second year of continuous service in an appointment with review a recommendation must be made to the President by the Director either to grant a confirmed appointment or not to renew the appointment. An early recommendation to grant a confirmed appointment may be wade when the appointee has had academic, professional, or other comparable experience before being appointed by the University. No persons will acquire a confirmed appointment by reason only of holding an appointment with review that extends beyond the second year of continuous service. They cannot be terminated before normal retirement age except in accordance with Section 6 below, or for financial exigency or redundancy. 3.01 Appointment as a program director requires an appropriate university degree and relevant experience.
