Valencia College was named a “Great College to Work For™” by The Chronicle of Higher Education. We work to ensure that our faculty have all the tools needed to provide high-quality education to our students, as well as the programs to help you to continue your professional development.
Are you interested in enhancing your practice, developing new and innovative strategies, and improving your students' learning? How about learning from your colleagues and sharing your expertise in a collaborative community within your campus, discipline or division?
Valencia College's comprehensive, competency-based faculty development program provides a variety of opportunities, from face-to-face seminars to online and mixed-mode. Classes are uniquely designed and facilitated by Valencia College experts—your colleagues.
Faculty Development seeks to support all faculty members as they expand their professional practices and examine their ongoing development in the five Essential Competencies of a Valencia College Educator. The goal of the Valencia College faculty development program is to engage teachers, scholars and practitioners in continuous improvement processes that result in student learning.
