Hi Krystal!

We pay our SI leaders $9.00 per hour for all time spent in training, during office hours, and sitting in lecture, and $12.25 per hour for all time spent leading review sessions, for the entire 15-week semester. On average, the leaders work anywhere between 6 and 10 hours per week. They are paid slightly higher than other student employees on campus (i.e. peer tutors start at $7.75 per hour). We do not have any graduate students currently employed as SI leaders, but in other areas on campus, graduate students are paid $1.00 more per hour than undergraduates (i.e. graduate peer tutors would start at $8.75 per hour). All student employees receive a $0.25 per hour raise for each year that they return to the same position.

Hi Colleagues:

We are trying to determine if our SI leader salary is “on par” with other universities. Could you please let me know how much your leaders are paid per hr. and for how many hours per week? If you pay students on a scale how do you determine that rate? Do graduate students earn more than undergrads? If you have mentor leaders, how much are they paid?

Krystal,

Our SI Leaders are paid $8.60 per hour and work approximately 10-12 hours depending on the amount of preparation needed for the course.

Mentor SI Leaders are paid $9.40/hour and have a few extra hours per week so that they can observe the SI Leaders in their mentoring groups.

Do you determine the amount of prep allowed for each course or do all the students have up to 12 hours each week? If you assign the preparation values, which courses do you consider requiring more preparation?

Hi Krystal,

In their first semester as leaders, our new leaders enroll in a 3 credit training course and conduct 2 one hour sessions a week (plus attend the class they are leading and do prep). Thus they are paid in “academic credit”. In subsequent semesters, returning leaders are paid $1200 a semester for doing 2 one hour sessions per week, preparation, class attendance, and meetings/trainings. This averages out to about 10-12 hours a week and a salary of about $10 per hour. Students have told me that this is one of the highest paid student jobs on our campus. If a student only does one session a week he/she earns $800 for the semester. We pay them at the end of the semester provided they have fulfilled all of the duties in their contract.

Thanks Marcy!

I had never thought of offering academic credit for training…do you invite any student to attend the course or only those leading SI sessions? How do students receive this idea about working for academic credit? Have you run into any problems with degree plans?

Hi Krystal – The course is called EDCP 318N – Leadership in Collaborative Learning Groups and is offered through our Department of Counseling and Personnel Services department of which I am an affiliate professor. They offer an undergraduate leadership minor and this course is one of the courses students can count for the minor. The course covers the nuts and bolts of running an effective SI session, as well as some theoretical underpinnings of how students learn, student engagement, learning strategies, student intellectual development, diversity, communication skills, etc. I’d be happy to share the syllabus if you want.

The course is restricted to students working in the SI Program on our campus. Students like the idea of getting credit for the course while learning to be an effective GSS leader (of course the money is an enticement for coming back!). No problems with degree plans. Most of our leaders have brought in a lot of AP credits so have some flexibility in their degree plans.

We start SI Leaders and all tutors out at $9.00 per hour. They can advance in increments of $.25 if they choose to level up under CRLA training guidelines. The maximum we pay is $10.00 per hour for those who certify at level 3. We consider our level 3 SI Leaders mentors and help train the new hires.

A typical SI consists of 7 hours a week: 3 hours of class, 2 one hour SI sessions and 2 hours of prep time.

Though they are worth more than that, that’s about all we can handle in our budget to provide over 90 Si groups during a full semester.

Hi Krystal,

We pay ours $10 an hour (undergrad, grad, post bac) or $10.61 (no longer a student/temp employee). They work 10 hours/week. This accounts for class, sessions, faculty meetings, in-service meetings and planning/prep time. At this point we do not have mentors but they would receive the same pay rate and most likely the same hours.

Krystal,

This is how I usually break it down—since the preparation for a math class does not equal the preparation needed for Microbiology.

3 hour courses: 3 hours of class, 2-3 hours of prep, 1 hour advertising, 1 hour of training per week (2 days of training mandatory before classes start) and 3 hours of SI sessions. 3+2+1+1+3=10-11 hours per week (11 being my maximum and I should see some extraordinary work done during that week!) These maximums usually occur only during the week of a test.

4 hour courses: 3 hours of class, 3-4 hours of prep, 1 hour advertising, 1 hour of training per week, and 3 hours of SI sessions. 3+3+1+1+3=11-12 hours

Usually Microbiology, Anatomy & Physiology, and Physics seem to be the “high prep” courses. Math courses can easily have less than 10 hours per week.
