Faculty from all disciplines, both tenure-track and term faculty, will benefit from this workshop.

In this training, we will tackle the mid-career faculty stage in three parts, each of which is meant to build on the other to help you gain insight and practical steps that you can take to reenergize your work.

Assess Your Past Progress and Future Potential

In this section of the training, you will gain clarity on how you’re feeling with your research and gain perspective on what changes you would like to see going forward.

 
Consider the Different Pathways

With fresh perspective and inspiration at hand, this section will outline the different potential paths you could pursue and what each path would entail. The different paths that will be covered are:

• Reenergize your current research direction
• Change your research direction
• Consider other pathways, such as leadership and administration

 
Put Your Goals into Action

In the final section, you will map out short- and long-term goals—not just in terms of the goals you would like to attain, but also including the skills you would need to acquire and the network you would need to build to get you there.
