It seem that the pianos can't be covered by a sufficient insurance after their 10 first years. Then all the money invested in their repair and maintenance can't be valorize , and if a fire happens or any disease, the school can't get his fund back. Do you know how is it working for you ? Best Regards? Isaac OLEG Modifying my presentations before of that. Isaac OLEG Entretien et reparation de pianos.

Richard, Well said regarding the Guidelines. Although our primary role is supporting education we get to educate as well. The Guidelines and any future documents are tools we can use to educate administrators and faculty. Of course most administrators will not be interested in reading through the entire document. Any presentation should include the results of the formula and reference to key points that are applicable to your situation. The CAUT Committee realizes that the Guidelines will not work for everyone. However, we hope that everyone realizes that it can help some technicians. Please consider endorsing the document if you have not already. A page or two of endorsements will help to ensure credibility. Don My point in the previous paragraph is that at that interview I was prepared and knew something about how universities operate. With the Guidelines, and help through the CAUT list, naive technicians can be educated before they get stuck with a poor position working for a college that treats them poorly. Knowledge and education can help technicians make better choices, have the confidence to demand and expect more from their university employers right from the first interview, and even perhaps raise the bar for college salaries and benefits. That's what makes all the work that the CAUT committee has been doing all the more important. In many ways the Guidelines are more useful for educating technicians than for making administrators see the light. I'd be interested in hearing more "creative funding" sucess stories.
