Center for Faculty and Curricular Development
Supporting the professional development and pedagogical initiatives of the Bard College faculty, The Center for Faculty and Curricular Development (CFCD) offers programs and support for faculty at all stages in their teaching and professional development. Regular programming includes Lightning Lunches (noon discussions in the faculty dining room), a series of events designed specifically for new and junior faculty, publishing panels, open classrooms, teaching roundtables, and summer workshops. Ongoing projects include peer observation of teaching, one-on-one consultations on syllabus and assignment design, and mentoring. Visit our newsroom for upcoming programs and more.

Accessibility at Bard
Accessibility at Bard is committed to supporting inclusive pedagogy. It is a large working group that will continue its efforts over the course of this academic year, welcoming participation and input from all members of the community.
Accommodations
Bard College is committed to inclusion and providing equal access to all students; we uphold and maintain all aspects of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), the ADA Amendments Act of 2008, and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. If a student with a disability wishes to request accommodations, they must register with Disability and Access Services (DAS). Any information regarding a student’s disability will remain confidential. Requests for accommodations should be made as early as possible to ensure adequate time for coordination and planning. Please note that accommodations are not retroactive and require advance notice to implement.
Disability and Access Services can be found in Olin 106:
