Assigning Multiple Instructors to a Class

There are many instances in which you will need to have more than one person assigned to a class: team-teaching (more than one person teaching at the same time), multiple instructors (when several different people teach parts of the course) or when an instructor is replaced after having taught some hours in the class.

  1. Find the class schedule you need to change by using browse or typing in the reference number.
  2. Change the ACTION CODE field to M (modify)
  3. Tab to the MORE field; type “Y” in that field and press enter.
  4. A screen will appear (Figure 13) that shows all instructors currently assigned to that class; move your cursor to the line adjacent to the instructor you wish to replace and place an “A” in that field. This can be a person’s name or a TBA instructor.
  5. The Maintain Class Instructor Screen is displayed (Figure 14). On the field INSTR ID, press the <F1> key and select the appropriate instructor.
  6. If the instructor’s name is found, move your cursor and place it on the same line as the instructor’s name and press <ENTER>. Press <ENTER> again to add the instructor.
  7. Only one instructor can be the “primary” instructor (instructor of record). If you want the person who was originally assigned the class to the primary instructor, press<ENTER> to finish the transaction. If you want the additional added instructor to be the primary instructor, tab to the PRIMARY INSTR field on (Figure 14) and type a “Y” in the field.
  8. The last step is to select the standard days and times of the original class schedule or select the actual days that the secondary instructor is teaching. For example, a secondary instructor may be teaching on Wednesdays of a Monday- Wednesday class. If you want to select the default schedule, place and “X” on the line next to the schedule (Figure 14). If you want to create a specialized schedule, type in the days and dates that the secondary instructor is teaching.
  9. Remember to adjust faculty loads (if required) through the IRM process outlined Section E of this manual.
