第二部分. 

The Vice President for Academic and Student Affairs will manage a recordkeeping procedure in which a form entitled, “Faculty Qualifications Profile and Authorized Course Assignment Parameters” (hereafter referenced as Profile), will be kept for all full-time and 兼职教师. The Profile will include the following: 

1. 1. 1. 1. All reported earned degrees are identified by specific type (e.g.， PhD, EdD, DBA， 硕士、MBA、MPA等.),

         3. Awarding Institution as verified by official transcripts received and on file from 授予机构，以及 
         4. All graduate and undergraduate degrees. 

Based on an analysis of the graduate transcripts and degree programs completed, course assignment parameters are identified for the EGSC discipline listings and levels of instruction in which the faculty member is judged to be qualified to teach according 遵守SACSCOC的标准和准则. If specific restrictions on course teaching assignments exist for an individual within their discipline or in others, they are identified 在配置文件中. Faculty who are expected to teach 课程 under other discipline listings and levels of instruction have those expectations also identified 在配置文件中 along with the appropriate 18+ graduate semester hours of completed coursework (identified by course number, title, and credits in that teaching discipline) and/or citations of substantive and detailed evidence of other related professional experience, scholarship, certifications, and accomplishments justifying their qualifications to teach such 课程. 

These Profiles will be available 给时间表建设者 a请到VPASA办公室. Each faculty member is sent and expected to review and suggest updates and corrections to his/her profile early in the fall semester each year. 

第三部分. 

Every two years, beginning in 2022-2023, internal audits are scheduled to be conducted by the SACSCOC认证 Liaison with a 10% sample of all instructors of record to assess the extent to which continuing compliance with Standard 6.2.A正在实现. Individual faculty who are found to be unqualified for certain teaching assignments in the previous audit will be included in each 2-year follow-up audit to ensure the continuance of corrective 行动 taken previously. 审计的结果将是 shared with all academic administrators, some of whom may need to take corrective 行动. Results will also be used to update the listing of specific potential noncompliance practices at EGSC that should be avoided 在布置教学任务时 as presented in the packet of information regularly distributed entitled, EGSC Expectations for Teaching Qualifications.
