Computer Literacy:
All College faculty, administrators, and staff whose jobs would benefit are expected to have or commit to acquiring significant computer literacy. At the very least, this means ability to manage files, use e-mail and conferencing, use a spreadsheet such as Excel, use Word or an equivalent sophisticated word processing software. Additionally, employees will be expected to use the Internet and to integrate multimedia applications into classroom use when appropriate.
Equivalency when applying for positions:
The College recognizes the value of skills and knowledge gained outside of formal higher education and paid employment. Applicants who do not meet the qualifications indicated in the job posting, but present other qualifications or experience equivalent to those required will be considered and are encouraged to apply. To qualify under equivalency, applicants must complete the equivalency question within the application. The equivalency statement should include supporting evidence to substantiate alternative qualifications.
Professional:
Central Oregon Community College has a well defined and financially supported commitment to professional improvement. The College will require the successful candidate to make steady progress toward appropriate professional goals.
