Faculty Fellows, a hallmark program for the Center for Integrated Professional Development (CIPD), has opened its call for proposals now through February 27.
For instructors, summer is the season of reflection and planning. They look back to the previous year and dream forward to when it all begins again in the fall. CIPD invites tenured faculty, tenure-track faculty, and nontenure-track faculty to share their knowledge with colleagues across campus through the Summer 2026 Faculty Fellows, a program designed for instructors to help each other advance teaching and learning excellence through the FITE framework. Fellows will design and deliver a full‑day, hands‑on, applied workshop (up to 20 participants) and join a supportive cohort that showcases local expertise and scales effective practices.
What Fellows receive
- $1,000 stipend per workshop (shared if co-facilitated), plus up to $200 for supplies/ancillary materials.
- Content support (bibliography development; access to instructional resources; consultations; outreach).
- CIPD logistics (promotion, registration, rosters, printed handouts with 48-hour lead time, space).
- Participant incentive: Workshop attendees (up to 20) each receive a $100 stipend for full attendance and engagement (CIPD administered).
What Fellows do
- Propose a hands-on workshop aligned to one or more FITE dimensions with clear, measurable learning goals and interactive activities.
- If selected, attend one or two planning/mapping sessions (2–3 hours each), submit a final Workshop Plan one week prior to delivery, and submit a brief post-workshop report within seven days after delivery.
