Jennifer Yeh, Jordan Harper
Applicant for the Delphi Award, 2018

In an effort to bolster support for part-time faculty, the division director for Central Piedmont Community College’s largest curriculum department connected and collaborated with full-time faculty members. A research-based program proposal was subsequently submitted highlighting five no-to-low cost support priorities to better the experiences of part-time faculty — orientation, needs-based training, belonging, professional development and recognition. The proposed program relied on the creation of a new Part-Time Faculty Coordinator (PTFC) role. Since its inception, the program has been able to track improvements in increased classroom visits and observations, mentorship between full-time and part-time faculty, morale and digital engagement within the Part-Time Learning Management Software (PTLMS) Hub and Part-Time (PT) faculty newsletter.
