*EQUIVALENCYThe Ventura County Community College District, in its desire to select outstanding faculty members from the largest possible pool of qualified applicants, recognizes the fact that candidates may attain expertise in a discipline through a variety of means. Certain combinations of education, experience and other accomplishments in the field may be judged by the District as equal to the stated minimum qualifications for this position.
The Board may elect to grant equivalency for a bachelor's or associate degree based on the criteria below. Candidates whom do not possess a bachelor's or associate degree but feel they possess such equivalent qualifications are encouraged to complete and submit the Supplemental Questionnaire for Equivalency with their application for review by the District wide Equivalency Committee.
Criteria for Equivalency: Disciplines in which a master's degree is not generally expected or available, and in which a related bachelor's or associate degree is not generally expected or available:
Completion of college or university-level coursework may be substituted for the required bachelor's degree or associate degree requirement as follows:
120 semester units AND two years of full-time equivalent professional experience in the discipline
OR
60 semester units AND six years of full-time equivalent professional experience in the discipline
AND
The candidate must possess recent knowledge of the discipline (within three years).
Notes:

• All semester or equivalent units must be earned from a regionally accredited postsecondary educational institution.
• Professional experience includes teaching experience. For the discipline of Coaching, one season of coaching experience is considered equivalent to one year of professional experience.

The equivalency review is an independent process for district wide disciplines that is separate from the recruitment process to fill a vacancy. A subcommittee of discipline experts that is coordinated by an Academic Senate President will review the equivalency materials and make a recommendation as to whether or not the applicant demonstrated they have qualifications that are equivalent to those shown in the minimum qualifications section of the job posting. For disciplines that are unique to a specific campus the equivalency may be done by the hiring committee along with an Academic Senate President. Please be aware that the hiring committee may not be able to wait for the results from the equivalency review due to various time constraints and may need to move forward with the recruitment process.
For further details regarding equivalency and the criteria by which equivalency may be granted, please review VCCCD Board Policy 7211 and VCCCD Administrative Policy 7211
