Faculty Development
Mission
The Office of Faculty Affairs and Faculty Development provides support for all faculty in the College of Medicine at Central Michigan University. We offer ongoing development opportunities related to instructional methods and evaluation, educational program leadership, mentoring and scholarly activity. Through workshops, campus events, individual and department consultations and certificate programs, we aim to provide outstanding professional development for our medical faculty and to support a high quality patient-centered, evidence-based medical education program within the College of Medicine.
We hope to supply our faculty with resources on teaching, working with learners, research and scholarship, and more.
