Education and Training

A.        Temple will provide employment related education and training programs to newly appointed TA/RAs, as Temple deems necessary. Such required education and training programs will be without cost to the TA/RA. 

B.         TA/RAs will have access to all relevant professional development programs offered on the same basis as other Temple employees so long as their participation does not interfere with their work obligations.  

C.         Professional Development - No provision of the contract shall preclude the University from scheduling mandatory professional development training programs prior to the beginning of an academic semester. Temple will then commensurately reduce or eliminate the work obligations required to attend those training programs by equivalent clock hours at other times during the semester, or offset equivalent clock hours currently paid for and not assigned.
