CFI Career Planning programs provide opportunities for faculty at all stages of their careers to set clear goals, identify concrete action plans, and document effectiveness and excellence while viewing their various activities as connected to an integrated career whole.
Among other programs, we are involved in creating orientations for faculty (Faculty Welcome Week, New Faculty Academy), providing one-on-one career consultations, providing programs that support faculty documentation of their achievements, supporting faculty who apply for the SCHEV Outstanding Faculty Awards, and organize annual institutes (Faculty Portfolio & Mentorship Institute).
Throughout these programs, our work emphasizes the values of collaboration, inclusiveness, and integration as we work with faculty in a diverse and evolving range of roles, responsibilities, projects, and commitments.
