The Faculty Success Program (FSP) is an intensive virtual program designed for academics looking to enhance their academic career. The program offers personalized coaching, weekly training, and accountability calls, all in a supportive community. Participants are assigned to small groups for individualized attention from NCFDD-certified coaches. Weekly group calls help with goal sharing and review. Self-directed modules and homework assignments provide insights into productivity techniques, goal-setting strategies, and time management. The WriteNow platform encourages daily engagement and productivity tracking. FSP improves research and writing productivity, while also boosting personal confidence, resilience, and work-life balance.

Prior to starting FSP, I had no choice but to bring my work home. I hated not being fully present for my family on evenings or weekends.

Prior to FSP, I was facing procrastination, self-doubt, and general drama around writing and research.
The Faculty Success Program was so useful in helping me get oriented in a new position at an institution I have worked at in a non-TT position for years. I feel like getting tenure is doable for me in a way I was very anxious about before the program.
