New Faculty Center Dashboard

The Faculty Center is happy to announce changes to its record keeping platform. Starting this week, you will be able to find your individualized Faculty Center professional development record on our new Informational Dashboard.

By consolidating training, workshop, and professional development data in one focal point, we strive to make your professional life easier as you keep track of your Faculty Center activities, registrations, action plans, and training.
