atw: Re: Part-time contracting question

Hi Marcus,
Talk with other part-time teachers at your intended TAFE. You'll probably find 
they 
all run shelf companies.  Before accepting the position: 
  a.. ask your intended TAFE who covers Workers Compo and any other insurance;
  b.. look at the required Learning Outcomes you are expected to impart; 
  c.. look at the preparation time you will have to put in; 
  d.. ask the other full-time teachers whether you can use their lecture plans 
and 
  lists of required resource materials; 
  e.. ask your intended employer what your obligation is for on-going 
assessment 
  of student progress; 
  f.. ask who writes the assessment instruments;
  g.. ask who adjudicates when students play up - they will.
I've been there and been done by that.
Cheers,
Brian.

  Subject: atw: Part-time contracting question


  An opportunity has come up for me to teach part-time at TAFE for 2 hours =
  per week while retaining my full-time PAYG job.=20
  A colleague mentioned to me it's worth considering setting up a company =
  name so that the TAFE income won't be taxed at the highest rate.
  I'd like to hear your opinion if you think this is a worthwhile step or =
  perhaps not given the low number of teaching hours.
  Any pointers appreciated.
