The next round of grant adjudications will take place in
the spring. Watch the Informer - or the E-Mail Bulletin Board -
for grant application deadline information. Grant requests can be
sent to the committee at any time during the year to be reviewed
as a group after the deadline. Copies of the application form have
been distributed to each divisional office and a master appears at
the back of your Faculty Development Handbook.

Faculty Development Handbooks

By now you will all have received a copy of the Faculty
Development Handbooks which provide a description of the
Mandate of the Committee, a definition of Professional
Development, and, an explanation of the procedures and criteria
which govern the adjudication of Faculty Development Grant
requests.

Several committees have worked on this document. The
last committee has really had the least amount to do with it having
simply completed the administrative consultation process, tidied up
language and created standard forms for applications. Considerable
time and energy was invested in the many drafts. Faculty owe a
vote of thanks firstly to Reid Gilbert, our first Faculty
Development Liaison for the creation of the concept that
professional development for most faculty is cyclical in nature and
then to Ruth d’Hollander, our second Faculty Development
Liaison for refining and organizing the content and getting it
approved in all areas of the College.
