Professional Development

CollegeNow instructors are required to participate in professional development that supports their course(s) each year that they teach with CollegeNow.

CollegeNow Conference

August 20-22, 2024

CollegeNow Conference Registration Materials

  • Review the CollegeNow conference Registration materials for the schedule, descriptions, and registration links. Note in the session descriptions whether you need to bring and/or submit materials.
  • All CollegeNow instructors must participate in professional development that supports their TC3 courses each year they teach for CollegeNow. Attendance of at least one conference session, either live or by viewing the recording, meets the professional development for CollegeNow for the current year.
  • August 20 and August 21 sessions are in Zoom. Each session title is hyperlinked to its registration form. You will receive a confirmation email with unique meeting link to join the sessions as scheduled.
  • August 22 sessions are on the TC3 campus in Dryden. There is a single registration form for these campus-based sessions. To help us plan, please register by August 14 for any campus sessions you wish to attend. 
  • Available recordings will be shared on this webpage after the conference.
  • Some disciplines are holding sessions during the school year rather than at the conference. These are noted in the registration materials.
  • New CollegeNow instructors must complete an orientation before teaching for CollegeNow, either at the conference or on another date. This does not fulfill the professional development requirement. Schedule with Victoria Zeppelin.

Alternatives to the CollegeNow Conference

In addition to this August's conference, liaisons may organize other opportunities during the year or provide individual support. Over the school year, we will share information about additional sources of "approved professional development" (including an April conference that our college co-hosts, as well as offerings from SUNY and other colleges or organizations); when possible, these are recorded for later viewing and shared in the College's LMS (check with Rhonda if you are unsure how to access the LMS organization for your discipline). Check our PD alternatives webpage for information and the form for tracking your participation in these alternatives.
