Staff Induction Program for sessional staff
The Faculty offers a sessional staff induction program twice a year, just prior to the commencement of semester. All new tutors are required to attend the program and a small payment is made for attendance. Other academic staff may also attend the program.
The induction program aims to familiarise staff with their responsibilities; policies and procedures; classroom management; understanding learning types; giving feedback and specific departmental information.
