This institute is designed for newly appointed department chairs, program directors, and assistant and associate deans who all have other faculty reporting to them. These individuals play a crucial role in the smooth functioning of the university and in supporting and developing their faculty colleagues. To enhance academic leaders’ capabilities and effectiveness in their new role, this leadership orientation initiative addresses four areas of professional development:
We run NCDI once there are enough new academic leaders to create a cohort.
The inaugural NCDI took place on May 17, 2014 at Talaris Conference Center. Click here to view the 2014 New Chairs and Directors Institute Program

This program has now been replaced by the Faculty Leader Series of workshops.
