Faculty Development Events
We provide a range of virtual and face-to-face faculty development opportunities throughout the academic year.
Brown Bags
Brown Bags are opportunities for faculty to share with their colleagues about the other parts of their professional life beyond teaching such as art, music, professional practice, or scholarship. It is a chance to learn more about colleagues and the fascinating things they do beyond the classroom.
Onboarding
Our onboarding program enables new faculty to become a part of our campus community by connecting with leadership, administrative staff, and seasoned faculty. It also assists in navigating administrative processes and adapting teaching and learning practices to our students and university culture.
For full-time faculty, sessions include a day long on-campus event in August and ongoing meetings throughout the first year to continue to provide institutional knowledge without overwhelming new faculty with the details of campus life.
Workshops
Workshops provide a wide range of professional development opportunities for faculty teaching and learning practice and implementation of institutional initiatives. Past workshops include platform rollouts such as SmartEvals and Canvas, accessibility and universal design strategies, AI, socio-emotional learning, and faculty lightning rounds.
