Induction

When you commence employment at Monash, you should expect to participate in a departmental induction program. Depending on the teaching role you will have – new permanent staff member, unit co-ordinator, sessional lecturer or tutor – you will experience a slightly different induction program.

New permanent staff members should expect to meet the following people:

  • Head of Department
  • Key administrative staff within your department
  • Discipline or group head (academic integrity officers are appointed for each department)
  • Unit co-ordinator (if part of a teaching team)
  • The course director of any course into which you will teach

Sessional staff, lecturers or tutors, should expect to meet:

  • Unit co-ordinator
    Departmental tutor liaison staff
    Other tutors/lecturers in the unit into which you will be teaching

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.
