AFT and VCCCD Announce Tentative Agreement


The Executive Council of AFT 1828 and the District Negotiating Team are pleased to announce we have reached a tentative agreement for a three-year successor collective bargaining agreement (CBA). 

The parties worked collaboratively to address many significant issues that are important to faculty, including increases to the salary schedules and enhancements in the areas of workload and assignments and distance education.

Interim Chief Negotiator Susan Kinkella addresses the board of trustees on December 13, 2022 to announce a tentative agreement with AFT Local 1828

We believe this tentative agreement reflects progress in the working conditions of our faculty and in the furtherance of our shared goal to support the inclusion, equity, diversity and success of our students.Interim AFT Chief Negotiator Susan Kinkella will be holding information sessions for the faculty starting January 5, 2023, and the ratification process for faculty will begin January 16, 2023. Once ratified, the tentative agreement will then be presented to the Board of Trustees at an upcoming meeting for their review with a recommendation from the District to approve.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the members of both negotiations teams for their dedication and tireless work through this process.

Thank you.

Chancellor Rick MacLennan and Interim Chief Negotiator Susan Kinkella
