In March 2007 we announced the opening of applications for the new PSC/CUNY Adjunct Professional Development Grants. Grants of up to $3,000 are available to adjunct faculty who are teaching six or more classroom contact hours in the semester and to continuing education teachers who are teaching a minimum of 20 hours per week. (Other eligibility criteria are explained in the guidelines brochure found at the bottom of this page.) The grants can be used towards research, courses, conferences, field studies and other activities that will enhance your professional development. The PSC/CUNY Adjunct Professional Development Fund is one of the initiatives the Professional Staff Congress has won contractually. It represents the first time in CUNY’s history that a professional development grant program has been offered to adjuncts and is one of the first such programs in the country. Negotiating improved professional development opportunities for members of the bargaining unit is one of the ways the union seeks to improve the quality of work life at CUNY. A grant application is available below. Please read the enclosed guidelines carefully.
