2026-27 Salary Scales for Represented Academic Appointees
Salary scales for represented academic appointees are set by the terms of their Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBA) and will be issued separately from policy-covered academic appointee salary scales this year. The 2026-27 Salary Scales for Represented Academic Appointees are issued effective July 1, 2026, for represented librarians and academic researchers, and October 1, 2026, for represented postdoctoral scholars, academic student employees, and graduate student researchers. Please review the May 6, 2026, issuance letter for details. The revised salary scales can be found online on the Systemwide Academic Personnel website.
Please note, because the new AFT-IX contract is currently in bargaining, the 2026-27 salary scales for Unit 18 lecturers have not been issued. Schools should continue to use the 2025-26 scales until the new scales are posted on the 2026-27 salary scales.
