Basic Statement of Responsibilities

The instructor is responsible for teaching
students through formal and informal classroom and/or laboratory/clinic activities in an atmosphere compatible with the philosophies, goals
and objectives of the college. This job description is an addendum to the Faculty Job Description.

Essential
Funcations

1. Meeting the essential duties and responsibilities of a full-time, tenure track teaching appointment at
   Allegany College of Maryland requires at least 40 hours per week on average, including work on and off campus, during the contract
   period. Much of the faculty work occurs at designated times each week (such as classes, office hours, meetings, etc.) However, the very
   nature of the workload of a professional educator at the college level means that the hours a faculty member fulfills his or her
   non-scheduled responsibilities are based on each individual’s judgment. The College offers learning opportunities in a
   variety of settings and at various times throughout day including weekends. As such, relegating faculty to an 8-5, Monday through
   Friday schedule is impractical. A typical faculty work schedule varies from semester to semester and week to week to accommodate student
   learning, professional development and service to the college/community. This position is mainly online with the
   exception of every Saturday on campus or in clinical with students. Faculty must be present for Nursing Faculty meetings, all
   college meetings and college and nursing committee meetings.

   educator. The primary duty of faculty is the instruction of assigned classes. This duty must take precedence over all others. 
3. Teach a minimum load of 30 credits per academic year with the exception of designated release and/or reassignment time as defined by the
   faculty release and reassignment policy. 
4. Need to work off-schedule hours, when necessary, for the benefit of their
   department: i.e. evening and/or weekend hours instructing classes, travel between campus locations, and recruitment opportunities such as
   Open House. 
5. As a learner centered college, faculty are expected to be accessible to students in a variety of days, times, and
   modalities consistent with student needs. Faculty will maintain published office hours for a minimum of 3 hours over multiple days
   consistent with course modalities and campus location or instructional site. Office hours may be virtual as designated times each week. The
   schedule must be published in the Learning Management System.
6. Attend fall and spring commencement/graduation. 
7. Maintain clinical competence in area of instruction and instruct students on the appropriate clinical unit.
