Synopsis

This book is about organizing and conducting a yearlong professional development program for new faculty. The length of time for the program is a significant departure from current practice at all but a few institutions. Typical programs for new faculty are limited to orientations around the start of a school year and last from one day to one week. Being a new faculty member should not be a "trial by fire" but rather a development process. An academic year allows enough time for the new faculty to be presented with new ideas, practice what they are learning, to share what they know, to get acquainted with the culture and systems of the new institution, in short, to make the transition to their new profession and institution.
