Securing Funding for Faculty/Staff Professional Development

There are several opportunities available for Faculty and Staff to apply for funding for professional development. This may consist of funding to cover travel to conferences, registration for participation in courses through the SUNY Center for Professional Development, and materials for research.

SUNY Canton supports faculty/staff professional development, however it is the responsibility of the faculty/staff member to ensure that all of the needed funding has been secured prior to participating in or traveling for professional development. Please make sure you are aware of funding request deadlines.
