Initiative Title	Increase Professional Development
Submitted in Previous Year(s)	2022
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale	Effective professional development enables staff to develop the knowledge and skills they need to address students’ learning challenges. To be effective, professional development requires thoughtful planning followed by careful implementation with feedback to ensure it responds to educators’ learning needs. Student Success Centers nationally have begun to expand their offerings to address not only student needs, but also faculty and staff. By developing effective staff development for tutors will 1) create the opportunity to partner with the CTL; and 2) lay the groundwork for expanding and enriching professional development available to not only students, but also faculty and staff.
Consequences of this initiative not being funded	Effective professional development allows for staff to improve their skills and adapt to the changing needs of the student body.
