The Faculty Success Program was a transformative experience as it gifted me with the tools necessary for a productive and fulfilling scholarly career that is sustainable. With small group support and coaching, the Faculty Success Program is invaluable and was beyond any expectation I might have had. As an alumni of the program, I have continued access to the platform, trainings, large group Q & As, and my small group for continued positive after effects. Marium Abugasea-Heidt, Assistant Professor, Department of Education and Human Development
The FSP gave me organizational tools to ensure that I am the best teacher and best researcher that I can be at Brockport, while building personal time in to my schedule allowing me to lead a fulfilling work life and a fulfilling personal life.

The Faculty Success Program (FSP) helped to drive home the importance of having a clearly articulated strategic plan. It is critical for new faculty to have a written plan for what they would like to accomplish during a given period as this keeps them focused on the most germane tasks. The opportunity to network with faculty from other institutions was another key advantage of the FSP Afeez Hazzan, Associate Professor, Department of Healthcare Studies
