Recruitment Methods

Billy, It may be worth it to you to contact members of your Advisory Board to let them know that you are always looking for good faculty members. They can be a good source for you. You may also want to work with other campuses in your company that are near your location.

Conducting Job Interviews

Cissi, Thank you for this post. It is great that you are open to the recommendations made in the course and by others who participate in these discussion forums. You may want to consider including some faculty members or even a few respected students as part of the "class" during the practice teach.

Thanks, Dave! You might want to consider having selected faculty members serve as mentors for new instructors. Those mentors may be able to help address the technology issues. For example, they could go to the campus library to be taught how to log in from home.

Dave, This sounds like a pretty thorough plan for faculty orientation. Is there an area that seems to be the toughest to cover or that needs to be added to the process?
