The pay rate is $640 per credit. For senior adjunct instructors (those who apply for and are awarded promotion after four consecutive semesters of teaching) rate is $675 per credit.
The pay schedule occurs every two weeks.
Adjunct instructors are eligible for enrollment in the Alternate Benefit Program (ABP) pension system at the start of their first semester teaching. Enrollment in the pension system is mandatory. If the member is retired from a State of New Jersey pension system, they are not eligible to enroll in the ABP. Instructors must notify Human Resources in writing if they are retired from a N.J. pension system.
The ABP pension is a defined contribution system. The employee contributes five percent of their gross earnings and the College contributes eight percent. Contributions are invested with one of the carriers authorized by the NJ Division of Pensions and Benefits.
There is a life insurance benefit included with this pension in the amount of 3.5X the member's salary. The premium for this life insurance is paid by the State of New Jersey. Instructors should complete ABP enrollment paperwork at the start of their employment.
Please Note: If there is any distribution of mandatory contributions at any time after termination of employment, members will be considered RETIRED by the State of New Jersey, regardless of age. They will therefore be ineligible to enroll in any State-administered retirement system if they return to public employment in New Jersey.
Instructors with questions, or who need information about enrollment in ABP, should contact Human Resources at (609) 343-5611.
Adjuncts may enroll for a credit course, free of charge, during any semester they are teaching.
They can register on a space-available basis, on the final day of the registration period.
There will be no tuition cost, but any special fee connected with the course must be paid by the adjunct (i.e. lab fee for computer class; material fee for art; texts).
Senior Adjunct Instructors not teaching in the summer may enroll in one summer credit course, tuition free, provided they have committed to teaching a credit course in the upcoming Fall Semester.
In all situations, if a grade of "C" or better is not earned in the course, the adjunct shall be responsible to reimburse the College for the full expense of the waived tuition.
