After an Associate Teacher has taught three classes successfully and submitted post-class reports on each, he or she will become a full Teacher. Teachers do not need to have their class notes approved, and can schedule classes as they so desire without prior review or approval.

===What is expected of me as a Teacher?===
As a UNI Teacher, we expect that you conduct classes at EVE University with reasonable consistency. This does not mean that you have to teach a class every week - once a month is fine - as long as you do so every month. This should be done out of your own initiative. Do not wait for a manager or director to poke you about teaching. 
We also expect you to take care of yourself: do not get burned out. Some new teachers start teaching multiple classes a week, but soon stop teaching because the novelty wears off and they get tired. Long term consistency is more important than short term quantity to us.
We also expect you to comply with our standards for class development and delivery.  This means that you use our standard format for class notes, and either add them to our [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Category:Syllabi syllabus library], or update and improve an existing syllabus there.  You most also complete a short online questionnaire after each class, so we can track class delivery and attendance.
===What can I expect from EVE University as a Teacher?===
EVE University always supports its teachers. If you have a class that requires resources (minerals, BPCs, modules, etc), funding can be arranged through EVE University's logistics department.
You will be awarded a UNI Teacher title.  You will also have access to the Teacher's Lounge forum, and the in-game teacher and mentor chat channel.  You'll have the opportunity to interact with some of the most experienced and knowledgeable players in the UNI.
Involvement in the University as a faculty member is also a stepping stone for higher positions within our management staff.

On ''very rare'' occasions, for ''extraordinarily qualified'' EVE personalities who genuinely want to contribute back to the community of pilots by becoming a UNI Teacher, we will grant special exceptions to this process - contact the UNI [[Director of Education]] or [[Training Manager|Teaching Manager]] for more information.
