Hires from the pool are made when instructional needs arise, with initial appointments typically for one semester, occasionally for an academic year. Appointments may be renewed based on Department needs, funding, and performance.

Lecturers who regularly teach credential courses must be qualified in the credential area through training, credential/license, or experience teaching in the public schools.

Preference will also be given to those with relevant work experience and training, previous experience teaching at the university level, and experience teaching in online, hybrid, and face‑to‑face classes with familiarity with online class management systems. Duties Duties of part‑time faculty lecturers include instruction, class preparation, grading, and office hours. Other duties may be assigned based on departmental needs. Course assignments, including dates, time, and modality, are made by the Department Chair under the direction of the College Dean. Lecturers will teach courses in their area of expertise. Most of the courses are taught in the late afternoon and evening, with some programs offering courses during the day as well. Candidates will also collaborate with faculty to maintain consistency throughout the program. The successful candidate will be committed to the academic success of all students and to an environment that acknowledges, encourages, and celebrates diversity and differences.
