  1. Student Tutorial Federal Work-Study Program

  2. Welcome! • If you are viewing this Power Point, that means you have secured a position in the Federal Work-Study Program at CFCC. Congrats! • This will allow you to gain experience in a professional environment, and give you something to add to your resume. • You must look at it like a “real” job and treat it the same as you would if this was a job outside of school. • This slide show contains important information that you need to know before you get started. You will be able to view it at any time during your employment.

  3. FYI… • The Federal Work-Study Program is a need-based, federally-funded program. Your eligibility has been determined by your FAFSA application. • You have been assigned a position on campus, or at an off-campus non-profit agency.

  4. Terms and Conditions You Need to Know… • Federal Work-Study (FWS) funds are limited; therefore, you have a limited amount of time to secure employment. • The contract you signed displays your award limits. You must keep track of this, as when that amount is expended, you will not have funds left to continue working. • You are not guaranteed the award amount. You must earn it in order to receive it.

  5. Terms and Conditions You Need to Know… • Federal regulations state that students cannot work more than 20 hours a week. • If you work another, non-FWS job on campus, the college imposes additional restrictions on the number of hours you may work. • Federal regulations prohibit students from working during their scheduled class times. • You may be permitted to work between terms, as long as the college is open during breaks, if FWS funds are available, and if your supervisor has work for you to do. • You will need to meet with your supervisor and work out a schedule.

  6. Terms and Conditions You Need to Know… • You must maintain at least half-time enrollment at CFCC (6 credits per semester) in order to remain eligible for FWS. • If you graduate, withdraw, are dismissed from the college, or drop below half-time enrollment at any point in the term, your FWS employment eligibility ceases immediately.

  7. Terms and Conditions You Need to Know… • If you are attending another institution on a consortium agreement, you are not able to participate in the FWS program.

  8. Terms and Conditions You Need to Know… • Work-study students are paid on the last working day of each month. Direct Deposit is available. Ask the work-study coordinator for the form if you wish to enroll. • The pay periods will run the 16th-15th of each month. • The due date and time will be noted on each timesheet.

  9. Employee Expectations • FWS Employees cannot handle any cash transactions; only full-time CFCC employees are allowed to handle cash. • FWS Employees are not allowed to work on work-station computers desired for full-time CFCC employees; they are only allowed access to computers for student usage. Students cannot access systems and databases geared for full-time employees.

  10. Employee Expectations • You are expected to do your best to be a good employee. This means going to work on time, working your scheduled hours, notifying your supervisor if you will not be able to work, and completing in a satisfactory manner the tasks assigned to you by your supervisor. • You are not paid to study. To receive the FWS funds, you must work and report your hours in each pay period as directed by your supervisor.

  11. Employee Expectations • This is a job in the professional world. You must act accordingly. • If you are sick or cannot report to work, you should contact your supervisor immediately. • If you do not report for work, or contact your supervisor for seven days, you will be terminated from your position. • If you withdraw completely from school, or wish to leave the work assignment, notify your supervisor and the work-study coordinator immediately.

  12. Employee Expectations • Again; your FWS job is a great place to learn professionalism. You are expected to act in a business-like and appropriate manner on the job. • Be respectful. Dress in an appropriate manner and adhere to a professional dress code. Ask your immediate supervisor if they have specific expectations for that department. • Ask your supervisor if there are additional expectations and policies that you must follow.

  13. Employee Expectations • In order to remain employed, all FWS students must maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) and follow the Student Code of Conduct while in class and at the workplace. • SAP requires a cumulative 2.0 GPA and a 67% completion rate. Additional requirements are expected of those for whom an appeal has been approved. If you have questions about your SAP, ask the work-study coordinator. • If you are on Financial Aid WARNING or SUSPENSION, you are not eligible to work.

  14. Time Sheet Falsification • Time sheet falsification is time recorded on your time sheet that you did not actually work. It is a crime. Any student who falsifies hours worked will be referred to the appropriate campus authority for investigation and possible disciplinary action. Students who are proven to have engaged in such conduct may expect serious consequences, including, but not limited to immediate termination from the FWS program.

  15. Inappropriate Activity • Any student who misuses college equipment or supplies, or commits any serious infraction of CFCC’s Code of Student Conduct, will be subject to disciplinary action by the appropriate campus authority. Students who are proven to have engaged in such conduct may expect serious consequences, including, but not limited to termination from the FWS program.

  16. For more information… • You will also need to complete the new-hire packet, if you haven’t done so already, including federal and state tax forms, which the Payroll Department requires. • Have a good semester!  • You may contact the work-study coordinator at any time via email: Betsy Reckerd, breckerd@cfcc.edu.
