The Employee Handbook has been prepared to assist faculty and staff with the various procedures that Mid-Plains Community College (MPCC) has adopted to facilitate the operation of the institution. Generally the Employee Handbook is based upon the Board Policy Manual, written procedures and generally accepted practices. All employees have access to the Board Policy Manual in the libraries, Human Resources office, Dean's offices, Vice Presidents offices, and on the MPCC website (www.mpcc.edu). Other written procedures are available from the appropriate functional area, for example human resources, accounting, or registrar.

The information in the Employee Handbook is subject to change and/or revision at any time. It creates no contract or entitlement and is intended to be informative only. Even so, it is essential that all employees be familiar with the information in the Employee Handbook.

The Instructional Handbook has been designed to be a useful resource for both full-time and part-time instructional personnel at Mid-Plains Community College.  Dedicated, imaginative, knowledgeable, adaptable faculty members are needed to support our college mission.  An effort has been made to include information that will assist faculty and others in becoming acquainted with various procedures, available resources, and other aspects of our college. 

It is anticipated that the Instructional Handbook will be updated annually and your suggestions are solicited regarding ways in which you feel the Instructional Handbook can be made an even more effective resource.  Comments and suggestions should be directed to your Division Chair and/or the Vice President of Educational Services and Student Development.
