Corning Community College, NY: Benefit and Compensation Study

Evergreen Solutions was engaged with the Corning Community College to conduct a Benefit and Compensation Study for full-time and adjunct faculty. The study examined all aspects of faculty and adjunct faculty compensation to ensure competitiveness within relevant labor markets. Evergreen established salary ranges with minimums, midpoints, and maximums for five faculty ranks (i.e., Instructor, Asst. Professor, Assoc. Professor, Professor, and Clinical Nursing Instructor); conducted a comparative analysis of employee benefit offerings among comparable institutions; and conducted a comparative analysis of overload/adjunct pay rates among comparative institutions. Evergreen also reviewed the College’s current compensation policies and practices to ensure competitiveness, effectiveness, and consistency with institutional peers. Based upon this review, Evergreen made recommendations on how to improve the College’s compensation policies and practices.
