Faculty Onboarding Course
The Faculty Onboarding course serves as an introduction to new faculty members coming to Klamath Community College. The course is designed as an orientation to Klamath Community College’s expectations regarding academic expectations, policies, procedures, and support services available. Faculty members will gain insights into Klamath Community College’s mission, vision, and values as well.
Additionally, faculty members will be introduced to the Canvas Learning Management System (LMS) and Cidilabs DesignPlus. Faculty members will be given access to learning tools such as Bloom’s Taxonomy, course design, and more to meet the needs of our diverse student population.
