A Director and several experienced faculty members from each of the colleges and schools coordinate and facilitate the program sessions. New, tenure-track and teaching faculty are assigned to one of these faculty members who serve as Resource Faculty during the duration of the program. The program runs for one semester \u00a0few specialized sessions in the spring. All new tenure-track and teaching faculty members are provided a one-quarter-time reduction in instructional load (3 Teaching Credit Hours (TCH)) in the Fall semester to attend the NFP program. In the event that a faculty member does not attend the NFP sessions, these 3 teaching credits will need to be made up. Tenure\/Tenure Track faculty members receive an additional one-quarter-time reduction in instructional load (3 TCH) in the Spring semester.<\/p>\n<p>The goals of the program are to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Welcome new faculty members and underscore their importance within the University community.<\/li>\n<li>Orient new faculty to the University&#8217;s culture.<\/li>\n<li>Develop a lasting cross-discipline, cross-college collegiality within the new faculty cohort to complement that established within the department.<\/li>\n<li>Expose new faculty to the University&#8217;s expectations on scholarship, teaching and service.<\/li>\n<li>Provide a clear and unequivocal understanding of the expectations of the University for faculty.<\/li>\n<li>Establish the practice of regular participation in professional development.<\/li>\n<li>Help underscore the importance of the new Teaching Faculty role at Montclair as an important part of the faculty and success of the University.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Throughout the year, there are opportunity for new faculty to interact with each other, their faculty peers, administrators and professional staff. The program offers a myriad of opportunities that our University offers for professional development.<\/p>\n<div class=\"prpl-row\"><div class=\"prpl-column\">\n<p>2025 New Faculty Group Photo Coming
