About TAM
You're looking at TAM, short for the Teaching Assistant Management platform. This platform has been developed to allow students to express their interest in TA'ing courses for the Computer Science programmes at Delft University of Technology.
🤔 How does it work?
As a student you can login on the platform and indicate which courses you would like to be an
assistant for.
Furthermore you can indicate your availability and maximum hours you can/want to spend on one or
multiple TA-jobs.
Every semester the CSE Teaching Team will then collect all the preferences and create
a schedule,
taking into account the preferences of the student, lecturer(s) of a course and also the advise of
the Academic Counselors.
Note: expressing your interest does not guarantee that you will get a
job as a TA.
👍 How do I, as a student, indicate my preferences?
Log in into the platform and go to 'Preferences'. When there's an ongoing recruitment phase you will see all courses that need TA's. At the end of a recruitment phase this list is then send to the lecturers of the respective courses. They will make a selection of the TAs they want for their course (they can also add people that did not use TAM themselves). Their selection will be send back to the CSE Teaching Team to arrange all contracts and other organizational matters.
💸 How do I, as a student, get paid?
You will get a contract at FlexDelft, the pay-roll organization of Delft University of Technology. Salaries are paid out on Tuesdays on a weekly basis. You enter the hours you have worked per week and the lecturer of a course will then approve your declaration. As soon as your declaration has been approved it will be in the next batch of salary payments. You will get a payslip and annual statement by mail automatically. For further information you can contact the FlexDelft employees (via email or by visiting their office in the IDE faculty).
🐛 I've found a bug in TAM!
In case you have access to the CS TA team on Mattermost you can report any bug in the "TAM" channel. Alternatively you can send an email to cs-ta-ewi@tudelft.nl, they will make sure it will be forwarded to a developer then.
