CTL 07012012 - Professional Development Credit Hours

CTL professional development activities (e.g. workshops, training sessions, seminars, reading groups) are usually held on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:00 AM-12:00 PM. Although this schedule is traditional for the CTL, professional development activities can be held on other days and times of the week based on various factors such as the availability of facilitators.

All faculty are required to complete at least 8 professional development credit hours (typically 4 credit hours in the fall plus 4 in the spring) each academic year. Professional development activities that are completed during the summer months can be counted toward the required credit hours for the upcoming Fall Semester. When faculty participate in professional development activities off-campus or outside of those conducted through CTL, they must be approved by their respective Deans or Department Heads. The Dean or Department Head must forward supporting documentation to the CTL for each of those activities.

Faculty must ensure to register for the CTL professional development activities they desire to attend before the scheduled activity. Faculty who want to present (e.g., conduct a workshop, training), must submit a written request to present. Both registration and requesting to present forms are located on the main CTL webpage.
