How to Add Instructors to Courses
Faculty Section Assignment (FASC)
- Enter the lead instructor in the first slot. Use the dates of instruction listed on the ticket.
- Add additional instructors in the following slots with their corresponding dates of instruction.
- Each class component (CLASS, LAB, or CLINIC) must have its own instructor assigned, even if the same instructor teaches multiple components.
- You can determine whether a class has multiple components by reviewing the Offering Info section at the bottom of the Faculty Section Assignment (FASC) screen.
- Example: The same instructor may be assigned to teach both the CLASS and LAB components.
- To delete an instructor, click the number box next to the instructor and select Delete.
- Be sure to save and update twice:
- Once when exiting the FASC screen
- Once when exiting the Sections (SECT) screen
Curriculum (Percent Position)
- When entering more than one instructor for the same class component (CLASS, LAB, or CLINIC), the Percent Position (Pcnt Position) for that component must total 100%.
- Divide the percentage as evenly as possible among instructors.
Example:
- NUR-111-852 (130738)
- CLASS – 2 instructors each assigned 50%
- CLINIC – 10 instructors each assigned 10%
- LAB – 3 instructors assigned 34%, 33%, and 33%
Common Issues and Solutions
- Instructor not on HPER file
- Colleague will not allow you to add an instructor who is not listed on the HPER file.
- If you receive this error, contact IDMS for assistance.

- Section record locked
- Only one user can access the FASC screen at a time.
- The record will unlock once the other user saves and exits the SECT screen.
- If the record is locked, you can:
- Wait a few minutes for the other user to finish, or
- Contact the user directly in case they may have forgotten to save and exit the course record.
