Instructional Leadership Management

The Instructional Leadership Management Form is used by the Vice President of Instruction (VPI) to assign responsibility for academic departments and their associated courses across their campus and centers. Specifically, this form designates which Dean, Department Chair, and Lead Faculty are accountable for each department.

The collected information serves two key purposes:

• Syllabus Approval in the Simple Syllabus tool
  It determines who can approve course syllabi in the Simple Syllabus tool.

• Self-Enrollment Access in D2L
  It enables designated users to self-enroll in D2L courses. This access empowers Deans, Chairs, and Lead Faculty to promptly address student issues or disputes without waiting for Online Services to manually grant course access.
