Faculty Leadership Program

Academic Affairs, Title III Center for Teaching and Learning, and the Center for Extended and Distance Education co-sponsor the Faculty Leadership Program, which recognizes the importance of the faculty’s leadership efforts at Austin Peay.

In exchange for a course release, the Faculty Leadership Program offers an opportunity for selected faculty to learn about available resources and the processes for accessing them, campus groups and organizations, different administrative responsibilities, and other details that would help faculty serve as knowledgeable representatives and leaders of Austin Peay. Accepted applicants meet once a week for an all-day, campus-led immersion program that facilitates this learning process.

The next call for applications will be in Fall 2012 for the Spring 2013 Faculty Leadership Program.
