Welcome to UNMC!

We are glad you are building your career here. Our goal in Faculty Development is to support you in being wildly successful as an educator, scholar, clinician, and leader.

Faculty Development is located in the Faculty Commons on the 6th floor of the McGoogan Health Sciences Library. The Academic Affairs partners within the Faculty Commons consult with educators to provide teaching, technology, course development and career advancement resources. We also collaborate to create workshops, training sessions, networking opportunities and other events designed to help our faculty community grow personally and professionally.

THRIVE: Success strategies for the modern-day faculty member

Thrive is a collection of thought-provoking, one- to two-page briefs that are designed to be easily digested, guide personal reflection, and be implemented immediately into your classroom, clinic, or online teaching. Thrive contains over 50 ideas for fast, focused faculty development that can be used in several key ways:

  • To help individuals learn on the fly, in a condensed, need-to-know format.
  • To help smaller learning communities or peer mentoring groups have a guide of ready content.
  • To help leaders embed faculty development in regular meetings for strategic unit learning.
  • To help faculty and leaders identify expertise across the campus.
