This fund provides financial support to teaching-stream faculty who seek to participate in a range of professional development activities related to the scholarship of teaching and learning including, but not limited to, attending academic conferences, engaging in research, and making scholarly presentations. Submission deadlines are March 31st and September 30th each year. Funding is for professional development activities occurring within six (6) months before or twelve (12) months after the application deadline.

The Spring TA conference is spread over three days with workshops organized so participants can engage with a breadth of topics necessary to fulfill their role as a new TA and as a future educator in higher education. The conference is designed to help develop and improve teaching skills. The conference is a great opportunity to connect and share ideas or experiences with graduate students in other faculties, as well as for professional and personal development.
