Planning Tool. Overview The electronic Academic Workload Planner is a tool designed to assist with the planning, measuring and reporting of ‘Total Workload’ in conjunction with part 5, this schedule and Schedule D of this agreement. The system is designed to automate a number of calculations in order to minimise the amount of manual input by ASMs and provide a summary of planned activity for the academic year. This summary will support discussions between Programme Leaders and XXXx in agreeing overall workloads. For the purposes of work planning and determining workload the following information and calculation shall be used: • XXX’s individual employment details (terms and conditions and details of appointment), and proposed teaching plan • XXX’s duties split into: Category ‘A’ Teaching and Coordination duties Category ‘B’ Activities directly related to teaching Category ‘C’ All other activity not included in ‘A’ & ‘B’ • A summary section will summarise the surplus or shortfall of hours based on the values input versus the net duty hours available. The agreed version of the electronic workload planner template will be provided to, and held by, the NorthTec TEU Branch President. The electronic Academic Workload Planners will be stored, and current copies maintained, in an appropriate place which is accessible to all academic staff members (ASMs). The agreed version cannot be changed without prior agreement between the parties.
