    [Faculty members should complete this form each year. Goals should be discussed in advance with the supervisor.

    At the end of each academic year, the faculty member and supervisor will review how well the goals were accomplished and determine goals for the following year.]

    Faculty Professional Development Plan


    Purpose: Effective teachers are persons who strive for excellence in their instruction and who seek the best from their students. To accomplish this purpose, a faculty member needs to be goal oriented. The Professional Development Plan, as proposed here, would support faculty in their selection of a goal, refinement of strategies to accomplish the goal and a time line to follow for the process. Procedure: At the end of an academic year, faculty members will identify one or two areas of interest for the upcoming academic year. Areas of interest are categorized as (1) professional competence/scholarship, (2) teaching effectiveness, or (3) service to the College/profession as described in the Guidelines for Promotion, Sabbatical and Educational Leave document. Using the one-page chart attached, faculty members will describe their goal(s), the strategies to support the goal(s), and the time frame for implementation. Faculty members would share the document with their supervisor at their annual performance review (or other mutually agreed upon time). Discussion at that time would focus on the potential growth of the faculty member and/or areas of improvement needed. Support or mentoring from the supervisor may be offered. Implementation: Faculty members will be responsible for the integration of the goal(s) into their teaching and/or professional activities in the upcoming academic year. Requests for financial support regarding faculty development activities should come to their supervisor and to the Director of the Center for Teaching Excellence. At the end of the academic year, faculty members should update their plan to reflect the activities undertaken and the evaluation of them. Those who prefer to do a narrative style of planning/reporting may do so using the same criteria.
