Although the literature is replete with descriptions of full-time and adjunct faculty in higher education in general and somewhat for the community college (Flannigan, Jones, and Moore, Jr., 2004), little has been written concerning the importance WFD faculty play in shaping WFD programs in the community college. This research has the potential to enable a better understanding of the importance of this sector of higher education since the creation and continuance of workforce development programming is essential to keeping an economy strong and in preparing students to meet the rapidly changing challenges of the 21st century. This study described the various functions of WFD faculty and aided in building a profile of WFD faculty within the community college and the workforce development division through examining how they are recruited, selected, and developed following appointment in the college. A main objective of this study was to determine the responsibilities and functions of the WFD faculty to the community college.
