The creation of a new faculty position or the declaration of a faculty vacancy is a function of the Board of Directors. The hiring and dismissal of all full-time faculty and staff are also the responsibility of the Board. The President may hire, without the approval of the Board, part-time staff and faculty who teach less than six hours per semester.

Applicants for full-time faculty and staff positions are normally processed first through the President of the seminary who shall keep applications and resumes on file. Applicants for full-time positions must be interviewed by the President and Chairman of the Board of Directors who shall consider their qualifications and suitability before bringing their recommendations to the Board of Directors. In the event that the President or Chairman of the Board of Directors recommends a person deemed unsuitable for the position, any member of the Board shall have the privilege of nomination, which the Board may approve or reject.

  1. Faculty and staff who are approved and compensated through Church of God World Missions are recommended to the Board by the President of the seminary and the General Officer of the Church of God under whose supervision the seminary operates.

  2. Faculty and staff whose compensation comes from the operating budget of the seminary are recommended to the Board of Directors by the President of the seminary and the Chairman of the Board of Directors under whose supervision the seminary operates. Salaries, benefits, and terms of service for these faculty and staff members are set by the policies and decisions of the Board of Directors.
