FAQ's

This program is for full- and part-time faculty at any of the Seattle Colleges.  Staff members are welcome to participate, but cannot receive stipends.

Time spent taking LEAD courses, workshops, and other faculty training are paid at approximately $45/hour:

  • "Introduction to Canvas", "Intermediate Canvas", and "Advanced Canvas Design" each pay a $270 stipend upon completion (approximately six hours).  
  • Completion of "Guided Course Peer Review" pays a $450 stipend (approximately ten hours).  

Faculty may complete multiple stipended LEAD offerings per academic year. 

If planning to take both LEAD100 or LEAD200, please note that you can only take one at a time, not both simultaneously. 

Stipends are available for full- and part-time faculty at any of the Seattle Colleges. Staff members may take any LEAD training, but will not be awarded stipends.
