Faculty Development Center Board

Principal Function: The principal function of each standing committee is to investigate problems within its area of concern and to propose to the Academic Senate any policy recommendations that result from such study.

Committee Functions:

• Advise the Director regarding the formulation and implementation of a wide range of programs designed to assist faculty in enhancing teaching, learning, scholarly/creative activities, and professional and service activities, including the use of technology. 
• Review, assess and evaluate the effectiveness of FDC programs and make recommendations on future programs where appropriate. 
• Encourage, assist and serve as liaisons with their colleagues in enhancing faculty awareness and access of resources for faculty and program development. 
• When appropriate, evaluate the merits of educational and other Faculty Development Center disbursed funds and make recommendations. 
• Formulate and review criteria and policies for funding and recommend decisions regarding the disbursement of funds for faculty applying for support for development activities. In the event that a faculty member of the FDC Board submits a proposal for funding, that member will not review proposals for that particular funding opportunity.
