Professional Development & Training

Campus Compact is dedicated to developing the professional capacity and knowledge of faculty, administrators, students, and community service/service-learning staff seeking to extend their campuses’ engaged work. In addition to state, regional, and national meetings, we offer on-site expertise and a host of resources to help members develop, fund, and run effective programs.

  • Diving Deep: Campus Compact’s Institute for Experienced Civic and Community Engagement Practitioners
    Over 3 ½ days in July 2010, seasoned practitioners from throughout the nation will gather with a team of distinguished facilitators to explore the future of the service-learning and civic and community engagement movement and come to an understanding on a deep, personal level of what it means to be a part of this field today. Diving Deep offers a professional development opportunity to support seasoned practitioners in influencing their campus and contributing to advancing the movement on the local, state, and national levels.

The Swearer Award has provided me with such an incredible venue for advocacy. At Penn, I've had the chance to speak to faculty, students, and alumni who are interested more than ever in supporting the civic mission of higher education."
