Instructor Guidelines & Agreement
This is a general description of current educational programming only. A separate, individualized Letter of Understanding is required for each specific program, and will be provided by Carnegie Hall at the initiation of any Teaching Artist's agreement. 

Class and Workshop Series Evaluation Forms: Carnegie Hall asks that all instructors complete a class/workshop evaluation form after completion of their class or class series. We also ask that students complete an instructor/class evaluation. These forms will be provided to you prior to the start of your class.
 
Class and Workshop Cancellation: In the event the enrollment deadline (1 week prior to start date) for a class arrives and the minimum number of students has not enrolled, the class may be cancelled.
If it becomes necessary for an instructor to cancel a specific class, they are required to notify the Education Director. The instructor must also notify each student of any changes in the schedule. Student contact information is provided at the initiation of classes. In the event that a class session is canceled, the instructor is responsible for ensuring that the class is made up at a time that is convenient for all students enrolled in the class, after consultation with the Education Director. This is important, as we will need to make sure the classroom is available on the day and time the instructor wishes to reschedule.

If an instructor earns $600 or more at Carnegie Hall during the course of any calendar year, this amount will be reported to Social Security (the entire amount, not just the amount over $600). You will receive a copy of this report form, to use when filing your income tax returns.

Facilities: Carnegie Hall advertises classes selected for our Educational series, coordinates registration, and provides classroom space and general set-up (tables, chairs, screen, etc.). In addition to traditional classroom space, Carnegie Hall offers a pottery/sculpting studio, art studio, dance studio, weaving studio and a stage. As these areas are also utilized or rented by other instructors throughout the week, the instructor is responsible for clearing the room of all artwork, supplies, etc. at the close of each class meeting, unless other arrangements have been made.

Carnegie Hall’s classes and other programs are made available to the community without discrimination based on race, gender, national origin, disability, age, veteran status or religion.
