Classroom Management

Faculty members are responsible for maintaining a professional atmosphere conducive to learning in both online and on-site class settings. 

On-site classes must adhere to the posted start and end times. If a faculty member wishes to change the time or location of a class, the faculty member must obtain advance permission from their respective School Dean and/or their Department Chair/Director. In addition, any class changes must be cleared through the Registrar's Office and the Campus Operating Officer must be notified.

All faculty must respond to students’ emails and questions within 48 hours on non-holiday weekdays. Emails and questions submitted on weekends or holidays must be responded to within 48 hours after the end of the weekend or holiday using their Berkeley College email.

Only individuals who are listed on the class roster are allowed to be in the classroom during the instruction of the class (exceptions include individuals invited by Berkeley College). No children of students or faculty members, or any relatives or friends of students or faculty members, can attend a class.

Students are expected to share in maintaining the condition of classrooms. Students observed defacing College property should be reported immediately to the Student Development and Campus Life Department.
