Create an EPAF for Special Projects Pay

Here are some directions on how to use the online EPAF process to pay Part Time Instructors for Special Projects. This replaces the IPA form for Special Projects Pay, although a biweekly timesheet will also need to be submitted.

This process is for PT Instructor Special Projects which are paid at the rate approved in the federation agreement only (link to rate). If you are using a higher pay rate than the Special Projects pay rate in the federation agreement, you will need to submit a letter of explanation and use the IPA (paper) process instead of the EPAF process.

Important Items of Note

Timesheets

A biweekly timesheet will also need to be submitted in addition to the EPAF.
