Adjunct Faculty Professional Growth

Maricopa Community College District has, historically, provided professional development opportunities for adjunct faculty in a variety of ways. Recently new, incredible opportunities are available such as the new TIER Progression Program and the TEAM Fellowship. These expanding opportunities are designed to improve student outcomes and to empower our faculty to continue to grow in their professional practice that has profoundly impact on helping our students succeed in Maricopa. Please explore the newly revised website that provides you with information for the many programs and opportunities available. Be certain to explore the Tier tab, as well as, other useful tabs for resources, manuals, and more. Feel free to reach out to the CTL’s or MCLI for support with these new and exciting programs.

The Adjunct Faculty Professional Growth Program (for conferences) is administered by the Maricopa Center for Learning and Instruction in the Academic and Student Affairs Division.  The program provides funding assistance on a reimbursement basis to adjunct faculty employees to attend external (outside of Maricopa County Community College District sponsored or offered) conferences, seminars, workshops, and professional meetings that are directly related to, and will enhance/update the applicant’s teaching skills and will enhance the learning of students for the class taught by the applicant for the Maricopa Community Colleges.

Consult the CTL (480-461-7331) and MCLI website for information on the process and submit your application!
