New Faculty Development Program Launches

Posted on September 23, 2024

The Provost Fellows, with UTLC, have successfully launched the New Faculty Development Program (NFDP). The NFDP offers two programs monthly, providing opportunities to our UNCG faculty.

The NFDP has two primary components: Formal Sessions and Workshops. The Formal Sessions are for new faculty and include panels, roundtables, and presentations on topics such as building classroom community and cultivating one’s network. In workshops (which are open to all faculty), individuals interact with each other as they work on time management, career progression, and teaching/research support.

All faculty are encouraged to sign up at ncfdd.org for the NCFDD 14-day writing challenge, October 7-20. Provost Fellows will be hosting virtual and in person writing events to help you get the most out of the challenge. Registration closes at NCFDD on September 27.  

For those faculty across campus who wish to attend the workshops sponsored by the NFDP, please RSVP here. The workshop details are provided below.
