Mission and Purpose
The Staff Development Committee is devoted to supporting the professional learning needed for Fullerton College educators—Faculty (full-time and adjunct), Classified Professionals and Managers—to improve student success. Staff Development support should contribute to this improvement not only in individual classrooms and student support areas, but across the campus as a whole. Staff Development believes this will best be achieved by encouraging shared learning and a culture of collaboration in order to become a truly learning-focused institution.
In order to further these goals, the Staff Development Committee determines staff development policies and priorities based on communication with constituent groups; provides campus-wide staff development activities and workshops to meet identified needs; disseminates Staff Development funds and facilitates shared learning following committee-funded activities; and provides oversight and facilitates the use of the Teaching Effectiveness Center.
