Flex Information
FPD Workshops & Form Information
Faculty Professional Development does not organize workshops during the Fall Flex Day, as each department is required to hold 6 hours of department planning with their faculty.
If a department will not be including adjunct faculty in department planning, there are various activities adjuncts may complete for Flex credit. Please see the PT Flex Report Form for more information.
FPD Premium Webinars & Workshops
Outcome: Participants will gain a greater understanding of a variety of critical and relevant topics related to classroom instruction as well as to broader issues facing educators today. Participants will gain information, training, and skills necessary to implement positive change in the classroom and at the college.
FPD Committees
Faculty Professional Development Office
The Faculty Professional Development Office has developed a strong peer oversight of all the professional development for faculty at Long Beach City College. We have seven subcommittees, plus the more independent Sabbatical Committee and a collaborative partnership with the Instructional Technologies Development Center. Each of the seven subcommittees offers a specific function to ensure the faculty professional development activities meet the current needs of faculty and are of a high quality.
