Effective with the July 1, 2022, contract cycle, Somerset Community College will permit multi-year employment contracts in lieu of the standard one-year employment contract to employees.

After completion of three years of employment in their current position, employees may request a two-year contract.

After successful completion of a two-year contract or employees with a minimum of six years employment in their current position as of July 1, 2022, employees may request a three-year contract.

Employees interested in pursuing a multi-year contract should read the related procedure to determine if they meet the established criteria and complete an application form.
