Professional Development Procedure

Professional Development Procedure

North Florida College (NFC) Full Time Faculty are required to participate in professional development each semester.

• The Associate Vice President of Academic Affairs provides all faculty – full time and part time – multiple professional development opportunities each semester via email.
• If faculty choose to participate in any professional development, he or she can record the information learned through the Professional Development App.
• Faculty may participate in online or off-site professional development opportunities. NFC provides funding each year to allow faculty the ability to participate in professional development as long as the information is supporting faculty in meeting NFC Strategic Plan goals and supporting NFC’s mission. 
  • o If faculty choose to travel for a professional development opportunity, he or she must have permission from the Vice President of Academic Affairs to attend. He or she must complete the necessary travel forms in advance and request leave through their department chair.  Forms must be submitted to the Office of Academic Affairs.
• Some professional development opportunities are required by the Associate Vice President of Academic Affairs; however, most professional development opportunities can be chosen by individual faculty members or their department chair.
