Welcome to NUFA
Welcome to the Nipissing University Faculty Association (NUFA) website. We represent 175 full-time faculty and over 200 part-time Members at Nipissing University in North Bay, Ontario, and our regional campus in Brantford.
We are organized into two bargaining units, the Full-time Academic Staff Bargaining Unit (FASBU) and the Contract Academic Staff Bargaining Unit (CASBU) which consists of part-time faculty, lab instructors, seminar instructors, ABQ instructors, clinical instructors, practical instructors, and course facilitators. We negotiate separate collective agreements but share a common finance and grievance system.
