To be provided to the facilitator by Instructor of Record
Eligibility: To be eligible for payment, a facilitator must have: 1) completed Ohio University’s online
facilitator training course before the term begins, or 2) served as a facilitator in an online OHIO course
prior to December 2013. The academic unit shall determine academic requirements; a minimum of a
master’s degree in a field related to the assigned course is recommended.
Payment: Payment to the facilitator will be calculated at $94 per student assigned, as designated on the
Online Facilitator Form. An increase or decrease in the number of students enrolled, as of the close of
day 3 of the term, will result in a proportional adjustment of assignment across all facilitators in the
course. If enrollment does not meet the minimum required enrollment as of two weeks before the start of
the course, a facilitator may not be required to provide services and the instructor should notify the
facilitator and eLearning OHIO of such. Request for payment for services will be initiated by eLearning
