Adjunct Promotion

Promotion in rank is not automatic but based upon merit, time in rank, and documented completion of the appropriate number of graduate credits beyond your degree as indicated below.

The college will notify adjuncts of their time-in-rank eligibility for promotion.

An adjunct member may then request to be considered for promotion by submitting a two-page application (A1 Form), the first page of which consists of background information and academic credentials and the second page of which consists of the adjunct's statement in support of their promotion in rank. Forms are available on our promotion page.

To be eligible for promotion to the following ranks, these guidelines apply:

Please note: Educational requirements for promotion are found in Appendix I of the contract, but the requirements were updated in the 2005-2011 Memo of Agreement.

Adjuncts with special credentials or professional experiences may also apply for a waiver of the educational requirements in order to be eligible for promotion to Adjunct Assistant Professor only. Here's how to access the waiver request form:

1. Log in to the MySCCC faculty portal.
2. Click Academic, then select Faculty.
3. Under Faculty Quick Links at the top left, click Faculty Forms.
4. Click the Adjunct Promotion Educational Criteria Waiver form.
