Side Letter with Respect to Accreted Titles

During the fall 2015, the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board issued a certification order adding the following titles to the Chicago Teachers Union bargaining unit:

• Instructional Support Leader

• College and Career Coach

• CTE College and Career Coordinator

• Youth Intervention Specialist, and

• Attendance and Truancy Specialist

The parties have concluded bargaining for a successor collective bargaining agreement. However, the Union has not made formal proposals with respect to the terms and conditions of employment of the accreted titles. The parties agree to continue bargaining with respect to those titles during the next several months and to amend the successor agreement to incorporate those terms and conditions of employment.

No rights or privileges established in the parties’ successor labor agreement shall be reduced or abridged by virtue of the parties’ amendment concerning the accreted titles.
