Why join the FRN?

The Faculty Resource Network connects its members with a broad organization of experts in higher education and resources across disciplines. Members benefit directly from professional development programs and initiatives offered by the FRN that may otherwise not be available at some institutions. The FRN provides participants with research and pedagogical support, opportunities for leadership development, and facilitates networking and collaboration across Network institutions. The FRN consortium significantly reduces the financial burden of institutions to provide professional development services and resources to their faculty and administrators.
