Our Purpose

The Office of Faculty Development provides a community of support and development opportunities that enable Augsburg faculty and staff to grow our excellence in teaching and learning, leadership, scholarship, and ultimately, student success. With the Center for Teaching & Learning, we provide workshops, learning communities, recognition, and resources to support faculty through all stages of their professional development. 

Days in May Call for Proposals

Augsburg’s annual professional development conference program will begin with the Dr. Jennie Diaz Memorial Lecture with renowned education scholar, Dr. Gloria Ladson-Billings.  All faculty and staff are invited to submit proposals for workshops by April 11.
