How to Evaluate the Impact of Faculty Development Programs

Professional Development Plans

Faculty development programs are an important way of building the skills and capabilities of the professors on your campus.

When these programs are high quality, they deliver valuable training and can greatly enhance teaching and learning at your college or university.

When they are ineffective, however, they can be a big waste of time and money.

There is very little available guidance on optimal evaluation procedures and few administrators or faculty developers understand how to accurately measure the effectiveness of faculty programming.
