Update Revision Responsibility: Vice President of Academic Affairs

St. Cloud Technical and Community College will develop and utilize an annual evaluation for faculty, including all unlimited full-time, unlimited part-time, temporary full-time, temporary part-time, and adjunct faculty. The purpose of evaluation is to demonstrate the quality and effectiveness of the faculty member’s work and/or to determine successful completion of probationary status. Evaluation is designed to support faculty in their professional development efforts to maintain in-field currency, demonstrate the importance of effective teaching, and to assist faculty in providing the best possible learning opportunities for our students.

Evaluations will be completed in a manner consistent with requirements found in Minnesota Statutes and the applicable collective bargaining agreement. Implementation of the faculty evaluation process will be conducted in accordance with the College Procedure on Faculty Evaluation. Unlimited faculty will be evaluated using a three-year rotation with annual review. Probationary faculty will be evaluated on an annual basis until completion of the probationary period.
