Academic Leadership
Â鶹ÊÓƵ offers workshops and provides professional development materials for faculty who have assumed leadership roles and those who are planning to join academic leadership. CTLL partners with the Provost’s Office and USG’s Faculty Development Office to offer workshops and professional development materials for faculty who have assumed leadership roles. We also support leaders who wish to form book groups or communities of practice to discuss specific topics.
