The CFI’s Signature Programs are center-level initiatives designed to help faculty be great teachers, flourishing scholars, and thriving professionals. The professional development opportunities cross the bounds of CFI program areas to provide faculty opportunities to engage in multiple facets of the role of an instructional faculty member. Through the CFI Signature Programs, we create spaces for meaningful conversations, skill-building, and personal and professional renewal.
