Part-Time Faculty Employment Best Practices
The State Board for Community and Technical Colleges (SBCTC) and the college system strives for world-class faculty and staff. Their contributions are critical to the quality and breadth of the colleges' educational programs. SBCTC and colleges work to provide fair compensation and working conditions for full-time and part-time faculty.
