The Center for Integrated Professional Development offers modest stipends to eligible participants for completing some workshops. Amounts vary based on the time committed and the work completed for the particular workshop. Stipends may not be awarded until final projects are submitted.
In addition:
Individuals may receive stipends for up to five (5) workshops during Summer Institute.
During Summer Institute, only one (1) of those five workshops may be a design cohort (AIM Online, Design Your Course, (Re)invent Your Course for Civic Engagement, Reinvent Your Course for DEI, Going Global, Plan for a SoTL Project).
Stipends will be issued as Additional Academic payments. Unless noted otherwise, stipends are usually paid in the month following the date of the final project submission. For example, stipends for workshops completed in July would appear on the participant's August 31 paycheck.
Stipends for a few workshops are administered by other campus units. For those workshops, please check with the facilitating department for information on stipends and payment.
Stipends are available to tenured, tenure-track, non-tenure track faculty.
Note: In order to comply with HR guidelines, hourly Civil Service and hourly Administrative Professional employees are not eligible for stipends. Additionally, salaried A/P employees may not receive stipends for workshops attended during their paid working hours. A/P employees are responsible for working with their supervisors to ensure that they are not paid twice.
Due to considerations including assistantships and international visas, graduate student employees, including those who are the instructor of record, must have stipends pre-approved. All graduate student employees are still welcome to participate in Center for Integrated Professional Development workshops, but additional payments will only be received if pre-approved. To begin the pre-approval process, simply register for an event and indicate that you are a graduate student when prompted.
If you need a special accommodation to fully participate in a Center event, please contact the Center at ProDev@ilstu.edu.
