The majority of our teachers start off as students who have gained a reasonable knowledge of a certain aspect of EVE and are willing to pass that on to new members. You do not need to be an expert by any means, and often teachers will begin teaching one small area and later expand the classes they teach as their knowledge and confidence increase. | The majority of our teachers start off as students who have gained a reasonable knowledge of a certain aspect of EVE and are willing to pass that on to new members.

*EVE University always supports its teachers. If you have a class that requires resources (minerals, BPCs, modules, etc), funding can be arranged through the University's logistics department. | *EVE University always supports its teachers.

Successful applicants will be granted Associate Teacher status. This is essentially a trial period for a new teacher. Associate Teachers receive the same access as Teachers, but must submit their class notes to the [[Teaching Manager]] for approval before scheduling a class. | Successful applicants will be granted Associate Teacher status.

==Becoming a Guest Lecturer== | ==Becoming a Guest Lecturer== | ||
If you are not a member of EVE University, but would like to conduct classes or give special lectures on specific EVE topics, we welcome your participation as a Guest Lecturer. Many of our guest lecturers are experienced capsuleers who are recognised for their in-depth knowledge and expertise in their chosen areas. We encourage anyone who would like to share their knowledge and insight with our students to step forward and volunteer to be a Guest Lecturer. | |||
===What is expected of a Guest Lecturer?=== | |||
*There are no activity requirements for Guest Lecturers, they are welcome to teach a one-off class or come back as often as they wish, even developing an entire curriculum. | |||
*Guest Lecturers are asked to submit a summary outline of their lecture to the [[Teaching Manager]] or [[Director of Education]], or indicate which class from the [[Syllabus Library]] they wish to teach. | |||
*Regular Guest Lecturers or those who are E-UNI Alumni, will have access to the Scheduled Classes section of the E-UNI Forum, and may post their own class announcements there. For those without access, the Teaching Manager or Director of Education will post the announcement, and for all Guest Lecturers will post the class in the in-game calendar. | |||
*On the day of the class, the Guest Lecturer should ask in the Education.E-UNI chat channel for a member of staff to set up and move them to a channel on the E-UNI [[Mumble]] server. Guest lectures are held in the Lecture.E-UNI in-game chat channel. | |||
