# Faculty Development Program

### Faculty Development Program \(FDP\)

The Faculty Development Program \(FDP\) is a three-course program. Each course is 12 weeks long, and full attendance is mandatory for completion. The FDP is mandatory for new full-time faculty. Part-time faculty will be admitted when space is available.

The FDP consists of three courses:

1. Foundations of Teaching and Learning \(FTL\);
2. Inclusive Teaching and Scholarly Practice \(ITSP\);
3. Technology Enhanced Learning \(TEL\).

Each project requires approximately 36 hours of classroom and/or blended-mode participation. They include deliverables and project creation application to course design, classroom practice, and assessment of student learning.
