Kudos: Ardoin named SEC Academic Leadership Development Program Fellow
Scott Ardoin, a professor in the Department of Educational Psychology and co-director of the Center for Autism and Behavioral Education Research (CABER), was one of only four UGA faculty members to be named a 2018-2019 SEC Academic Leadership Development Programs (ALDP) Fellow.
Created by the Southeastern Conference in 2008, the fellowship program seeks to identify, develop, prepare and advance academic leaders for roles within SEC institutions and beyond. The Fellows meet throughout the academic year with key administrators to explore the challenges in higher education and the best approaches to problem solving.
“My hope is that this fellowship helps to enhance my leadership and management skills,” said Ardoin. “I especially hope that I can gain insight in how to promote quality teaching and research of junior faculty, so that they can reach their potential without an overwhelming amount of stress.”
