Instructional Student Assistants (ISAs)
Under supervision, Instructional Student Assistants in this classification perform teaching, grading or tutoring duties for the majority of work hours in a given appointment in a given academic department or equivalent administrative unit over the course of an academic term. Assignments are made by academic department or equivalent administrative unit by a specific supervisor at a CSU campus.
Incumbents in this classification work part-time (typically 20 hours per week) during academic periods and may work full-time during academic break periods. Incumbents may have concurrent assignments in other Student Assistant classifications as long as the maximum hours are not exceeded.
The Instructional Student Assistant classification is distinguished from other Student Assistant classifications by the nature of work performed. The majority of work performed in a given appointment in a given academic department or equivalent administrative unit over the course of an academic term by Instructional Student Assistants is tutoring, grading and/or teaching work while the other Student Assistants perform other duties including clerical, technical, custodial, laborer or other work as assigned.
