Sessional Instructor Opportunities (CUPE 5524)
In 2026, the University of Waterloo and the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) Local 5524 ratified two collective agreements: one governing sessional instructors and the other governing graduate teaching assistants (TAs) and graduate research assistants (RAs).
A key component of this work is the establishment of a centralized, accessible platform to support the new hiring processes for sessional instructors, as well as graduate TAs and RAs. Going forward, Sessional Instructor Opportunities are posted here: CUPE 5524 Opportunities website.
