Faculty Academy is a long running faculty development activity at the University of Mary Washington (UMW), with this year's theme "Are We There Yet?

Each year, Faculty Academy brings together faculty and staff from the University of Mary Washington to share and celebrate the year's efforts and accomplishments in the classroom, with teaching and learning technologies as the specific focus (or, one might say, catalyst) of the event. In their spirit of open collaboration, Faculty Academy is also open to educators from other regional institutions to attend, as well as an even larger audience who tune in via the web.
In this Connect@NMC webinar, we learn what makes Faculty Academy succeed in a conversation with staff from the Division of Teaching and Learning Technologies who plan and host the event.
