Nearly 70 percent of faculty members are not on the tenure track, yet most higher education policies and systems assume that they are. The result is a growing segment of our instructor base that lacks access to the resources it needs to perform effectively in the classroom. When our faculty members feel unsupported, our students will feel that way also. Fortunately, you can modify policies, adopt different practices, and utilize different tools so that all your instructors can operate at an optimal level.
Register to participate in the Magna Online Seminar (Policies, Practices for Supporting Non-Tenure Track Faculty) led by Adrianna Kezar, PhD, professor of higher education at the University of Southern California. During this online seminar, policies and practices will be discussed that will enable you to put systems and support structures in place so that all faculty can access the resources they need to help students achieve.
