Professional Development
Following the President's address, at 1:00 p.m. we are pleased to offer a continuing education program designed to provide
strategies, tools and insights to manage a disruptive classroom or office situation. In partnership with Northwell Health’s Behavioral Health division, the Provost’s
office, and the Division of Student Engagement, this workshop is designed to help
faculty and staff maintain a positive and focused learning environment, focusing on
the skills needed to effectively handle classroom disruptions or challenging interactions

a campus atmosphere that enables our students, faculty and staff to thrive.
