Webinar Description
Teaching-track faculty follow a distinct career path in academia, one that is often met with less guidance and fewer established resources. This webinar explores the teaching track path from start to finish: What to look for when entering a teaching-track position? How to build a record that supports advancement? What does promotion look like, which can vary significantly by institution? Panelists will draw on their own experience navigating teaching-track careers, offering practical guidance for attendees at any stage.
