NCFDD

Texas A&M University-San Antonio is a proud institutional member of the National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity (NCFDD).

Founded in 2010, NCFDD is the leading provider of professional development in higher education. Working with over 340 colleges and universities and thousands of individuals in schools nationwide, the organization is devoted to supporting faculty members, postdocs, and graduate students in making successful transitions throughout their careers.

NCFDD provides on-demand access to the mentoring, tools, and support needed to be successful in the Academy. The organization focuses on four key areas that help achieve extraordinary writing and research productivity while maintaining a full and healthy life off campus: strategic planning, explosive productivity, healthy relationships, and work-life balance. 

Faculty Testimonial

"The 14-day writing challenge is one of the many resources the NCFDD provides that help keep faculty focused on research projects throughout the year. Juggling teaching and service responsibilities can be tricky sometimes so the accountability and support of daily encouragement and structure really help to jump start my writing each semester. It is especially helpful at the end of a project to get it from "in progress" to "submit." I would recommend this to anyone who wants to clear something off their desk, move a project through their publication pipeline, and get their research out to more people. I hope to see more people from A&M-San Antonio participate in the next challenge!"
