The CFD provides professional development workshops for LMU faculty to continue their life-long learning. We offer a formative and constructive space for faculty, led by faculty. Events and workshops are open to all LMU faculty. Our goal is to build community, while we support and inspire each other.
The CFD offers three types of workshops:
- CFD-sponsored workshops where LMU faculty generate and facilitate faculty-to-faculty peer workshops;
- CFD Co-Sponsored workshops where the CFD partners with offices across LMU on topics that affect faculty teaching/learning, scholarship/creative practice, and/or leadership/professional development
- Partner workshops where the CFD allows campus partners to use our space for tutorials and presentations on topics of interest to faculty teaching/learning, scholarship/creative practice, and/or leadership/professional development
If you are an office on campus or a faculty member interested in offering an event through the CFD, please email CFD@lmu.edu to start the process of requesting an event. We look forward to seeing you at the CFD!
