<br> Without our [[List of Teachers|faculty of volunteer teaching staff]], EVE University could not exist. These players selflessly volunteer their time and effort to teach new players about the various career paths and options available in EVE. However, just as most UNI members eventually move on from EVE University, some of our Teachers also leave us. This is why we are constantly seeking qualified capsuleers who are willing to step up and teach what they've learned to a new generation of UNI pilots. | <br> Without our [[List of Teachers|faculty of volunteer teaching staff]], EVE University could not exist.

While all classes are welcome, we are especially looking for teachers who will teach classes with regularity - even if it is only once a month. Being a Teacher in EVE University means people will also turn to you for advice, as new players recognise your efforts to help them and your knowledge in a certain field. If you like helping others, being a UNI Teacher can be a very rewarding experience. | ||

For these reasons, we have established the [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Joining_The_Faculty# | For these reasons, we have established the [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Joining_The_Faculty#Guest_Lecturer_Programme Guest Lecturer] programme, so that you will not be constrained by UNI rules and policies, but can still help new pilots in EVE - and according to your own schedule and level of desire. We encourage all highly experienced EVE players who wish to teach to pursue that option. | ||

== Teacher Induction Programme == | |||
If you are an experienced EVE player, are not accepted as a standard UNI applicant, then the Teacher Induction Programme is a way to become a UNI Teacher. If you would like to join the Teacher Induction Programme, please send an EVE mail to the [[Teaching Manager]] or the [[Director of Education]] explaining your background and what topic(s) you'd like to deliver. | |||
=== How does the Teacher Induction Programme work? === | |||
*You begin as a Guest Lecturer for a probationary period of two months. | |||
*You must teach at least two classes per month. | |||
*After successfully completing the probationary period of two months or six classes, whichever is later, you will be eligible to become a full Teacher and a member of EVE University, pending approval by our Personnel department. | |||
*After the [[Teaching Manager]] has sent you confirmation that your probationary period was successful, you should await contact from the Personnel department. | |||
*The application must be made by your main character, no alts allowed. | |||
*You must understand and comply fully with [[EVE University Rules]]. | |||
All applications are subject to review by our Personnel and other departments and acceptance is not guaranteed. Acceptance into the UNI under this programme is conditional on you being an active Teacher, inactivity will result in removal from the Uni. | |||
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 may grant special exceptions to this process - contact the UNI [[Director of Education]] or [[Teaching Manager]] for more information. | |||
