Instructors shall teach a minimum of one course per semester, for a total minimum of three courses per year. Each course lasts fifteen weeks, with one class per week and each class lasts 2 hours. There may be exceptions for special courses designed by the instructor and the EECOM that may modify the number of weeks, classes per week, and class duration.
