The Faculty Academy is designed to introduce new, full-time faculty to Macomb Community College and its mission, resources, policies, academic culture, and the probationary process. In addition, effective teaching and learning strategies, curriculum design, and assessment techniques that focus on increasing student success and retention are just a few of the topics that are explored and discussed during the sessions. Along with that, the interaction with fellow participants can help form lasting bonds that provide professional support and assistance in the future. Probationary faculty attend eight sessions of Faculty Academy in their first year of probation. In the second year of probation, new faculty present their Individualized Learning Plan at the April session of Faculty Academy. The Academy sessions are open to all faculty members. If you are interested in attending a session, please contact the Center for Teaching and Learning at 586.445.7588 for more information on session topics and to reserve your spot.
