Once approved, teaching assignments are “by agreement.” The Instructor’s Contract outlines the course schedule and the compensation terms, subject to Extension policies and procedures. UCLA Extension makes no commitment to hire an instructor until it has sent and received a signed Instructor Contract. If the course section that an instructor plans to teach is cancelled for any reason, the Instructor Contract, including rights to compensation for future section meetings, is voided.

    In an effort to promote and maintain a healthy environment for our students, visitors and employees, UCLA is a smoke-free site. Smoking is prohibited within the boundaries of all UCLA owned, occupied, leased, and associated building and facilities.
