How to Apply
SKHS Graduate Students apply for TA positions via the SKHS TA Application Online Site. Instructions on identifying and ranking which SKHS undergraduate courses you would like to be considered to serve as a TA are available on the site.
The 2013-2014 Undergraduate Timetable of TA Positions will be available here shortly
The Timetable provides a summary of details on course lecture, lab, seminar and tutorial times for all courses offered in that academic session that require TA support. A link to a course outline for each listed course is included in the Timetable document - the link will take you to the corresponding course outline as listed on the SKHS Undergraduate website. Details for each course timeslot and lab/seminar/tutorial requirements and timeslots are also noted on the TA App Site with each course listing. Please note some courses have specific requirements for TAs to perform that require the TA to be on site on specific dates. Those dates and requirements are listed on the Timetable document and are truly non-negotiable. You must be available on those dates to perform those duties so do not apply for those positions unless you are able to commit your time accordingly.
Application Due Date
The SKHS Graduate Assistant will forward an email to all eligible SKHS Graduate Students providing them with the specified dates during which they may visit the TA App Site and perform their ranking choices. This timeline will be ten (10) working days. Following that timeline the site will close to further access.
Decision
TA ranking requests provided by graduate students via the Online App system will be reviewed by the SKHS Admin Academic team and final assignments identified. The SKHS Graduate Assistant will forward each identified TA their TA Agreement Form for acceptance. The TA will accept or decline the assignment as appropriate. Students who decline assignments are considered for but not guaranteed an alternate assignment depending on the needs of the School's programs.
Payment
Upon acceptance the SKHS Graduate Assistant will prepare an online TA payment contract. The Student will accept the online contract to initiate regular monthly TA payments. TA payments are made as direct deposits to Student bank accounts on the last working day of each month from Sep to Dec (Fall Term) and Jan to Apr (Winter Term) each year in 1/4 the total TA contract amount for that Term.
Completion/Signing of TA Agreement Tasks/Duties/Hours
Each TA will meet with the Instructor of each course to complete the TA Agreement, before performing any TA responsibilities and no later than the first week of classes in each Term, and identify the various responsibilities and the number of hours associated with those responsibilities for each TA assignment. The course Instructor will return all completed, signed TA Agreements to the SKHS Graduate Assistant. The SKHS Graduate Assistant will make a copy for the course Instructor, TA, PSAC 901, and file the original in the Student's SKHS student file.
