DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
This is the full working clerical level class in the Instructional Support Series within the Yosemite Community College District (YCCD). Incumbents in this class perform the full range of journey level instructional and administrative support duties in classrooms, tutoring centers, computer laboratories and other general instructional settings. Duties typically emphasize administrative activities that may require substantial computer hardware/software user skills but do not typically require advanced knowledge of a specialized or technical academic area. Positions at this level may be assigned to a wide variety of academic divisions and/or work units within YCCD.
This class may be distinguished from the lower-level class of Instructional Support Aide because incumbents in that class provide the most basic instructional and/or tutoring services for students and also perform routine clerical duties in support of their assigned work area. This class may also be distinguished from the higher-level class of Instructional Support Technician because incumbents in that class provide complex technical instructional and administrative support in specialized academic/laboratory settings.
