Adjuncts as educators have unique challenges depending on their personal and professional situations. Join us on Saturday, April 22 for a 4Cs conference from 10am-2pm at Middlesex Community College that will address issues each part-time educator faces in long-term professional development.

The 4Cs is seeking presenters of workshops by adjuncts and full-time educators and others to share expertise on successful strategies and pathways to goals. If you are interested in presenting, please sign up here.

Some of the planned workshops include:

• The role of Adjuncts and increasing demand for STEM professors.
• Adjuncts and Benefits ranging from Planning for Health, Retirement and Employment Entitlements,   including insights from colleagues that cover Unemployment Entitlements between contracts.
• Finding a voice and the importance of political engagement to promote your voices regardless of political affiliation. The workshop will also investigate trends in the academic arena.
• "Publish or Perish":  How and why publishing research, expert opinion, and practical work in your discipline is a critical pathway to student and professional success.

While the conference is free, we ask that you register hereas both breakfast and lunch will be provided. The conference is open to all part-time and full-time faculty and staff in Connecticut.
