Part-Time Lecturer Evaluation Overview
Part-time Lecturer evaluations are primarily overseen by the Department and/or College, and any questions regarding evaluation should be directed to them first. The period and type of review undergone by the Faculty Member is determined by the lecturer's length of employment and contract type.
* In the 2023-2024 Academic Year ALL Part-time Lecturers will be required to submit their WPAF through the Interfolio submission system
Access to Interfolio is available through the CSUF faculty portal. There will be 12 categories within Interfolio for Lecturers to upload their documents,
Please note that there will also be a Fall evaluation cycle this year for Lecturers who only teach in Fall semesters or for whom Fall 2021 is their second semester of teaching. For Counselors (CAPS) and Library Faculty there are some documents that are specific to thier portfolios and they are noted below.
UPS 210.070 defines the four types of evaluations. The period of review for each evaluation type is different and the type of evaluation that Lecturer Faculty undergo is deterimined by length of employment at CSUF and terms of current employment contract:
- 6 -Year comprehensive evaluation
- Year 3 of 3 periodic evaluation
- Annual periodic evaluation
- Range Elevation Evaluation
Descriptions and materials to aid in the preparation of all evaluation types, except Range Elevations, are provided on this page. Further information about Range Elevations can be found on th FAR Range Elevation Information Page.
