Minimum Competencies. Minimum competencies will be reviewed and defined each school year through joint decision. The process will be: A. A recommendation will be generated through discussion among all faculty members in a department (i.e. only those who teach in a specific discipline). B. The representative or chairperson of the department (note: if the faculty chairperson or representative does not represent the discipline, the senior member of that discipline will act in their place) will bring the recommendation forward for discussion with the designated administrator. C. The recommendation will be jointly agreed to by the department representative (as specified above) and the designated administrator. D. The final list will be approved by the Vice President and Chief Academic Officer and the Faculty Forum President. E. Minimum competencies will be defined in priority order by course. F. All faculty members must meet the minimum competencies for all courses they are scheduled to teach as defined in the aforementioned list agreed to by the Vice President and Chief Academic Officer and President of the Faculty Forum. 1. If minimum competencies are changed after a faculty member has already taught a class, a faculty member will be considered as meeting the minimum competencies for that class so long as they satisfy current external accreditation standards and have met both of the following criteria: 1) taught the class during the past five years and 2) taught the class after Summer 2018.
