In the last round of bargaining, we won increased conversions and Long Service Teaching Appointments (LSTAs). There are 8 conversions (2 Professorial Stream and 6 to the Alternate Stream) and 7 LSTAs this year.

There were 53 applications for conversions and 29 applications to the LSTA program. Clearly, members have shown a lot of interest in both programs; pushing to extend them in the next round of bargaining should be a priority.

We would like to congratulate the members who have received these appointments (the list only includes those who consented to be named):
