For Faculty & Staff
The COVID-19 Dashboard
In preparation for changes in Fall 2020, the COVID-19 Public Dashboard has been created as a resource for the NCTC community to provide some answers to important questions. As this virus changes, we must be prepared to respond and implement plans to continue operating and serving our students. The safety of the college community is our priority and NCTC will continue to provide information and preventative measures to keep our communities safe.
Please remember to complete your NCTC Health Check each day you are on campus.
I've tested positive, believe I have COVID, or have been around someone with COVID. What do I do?
If you test positive for COVID-19 or get sick after you are exposed to someone with COVID-19, you can help stop the spread of COVID-19 to others.

Leave in response to COVID-19
If you have traveled from or through any country that is designated as a Level 1, 2 or 3 by CDC for COVID-19 within the last 14 days, follow the recommendations below.
We are asking our students, faculty, and staff to be mindful of our community and self-report any family/self-travel to Level 1, 2 or 3 areas to the NCTC Recent & Planned Travel Survey.
If you do not feel well following travel to a Level 2 or Level 3 area, we ask that you please stay at home. In such an event, please contact a medical professional and follow the medical professional’s advice, including any encouragement to self-quarantine for 14 days.

If an employee is ill or quarantined, you should first use sick leave. If sick leave is exhausted, vacation leave may be used.
If an employee is out due to their own illness they are also eligible for the short-term disability, if they have been employed for one year or more.
Employees will be able to use FMLA, if eligible, if an employee, a child, spouse, or parent becomes infected with the virus. FMLA is unpaid leave.
