Professional Development for Faculty
WellAcademic helps faculty work well and be well in the academy
Because you deserve MORE...more time to write, to spend with loved ones, to replenish from the stress of daily life
Trusted by faculty at...
And more!
Your well-being can seem like the price you must pay for faculty success, especially if you're:
- Buried under an overwhelming service load
- Juggling the competing demands of work and family
- A woman of color or other marginalized faculty
- Doing work that challenges systems of oppression
But the path to a sustainable, fulfilling work-life is closer than you imagine. WellAcademic can help you get there.
Let's reclaim your time and revolutionize how you work
while helping you find some joy along the way.

Since 2015, hundreds of faculty have found success, replenishment, and connection through WellAcademic’s guided programs.

Escape the confines of your overscheduled life with Makeover or confidently go up for P&T with Well-Prepared.
WORKSHOPS
From managing stress to mentoring across racial difference, these sessions address the pressing needs of faculty.
WOC RETREATS
Holistic professional advancement programs that foster the success and replenishment of women of color faculty.
Focus Fridays
Write more while having fun.
You read that right - "fun" and "write" are in the same sentence. Intentionally.
Our inclusive faculty writing community is all about crushing your goals in a space of belonging, celebration, learning...and even some unabashed chair dancing.
There's no reason writing needs to be an isolating, miserable experience.
There's a better way.

WellAcademic LITERALLY changed my life
"Through WellAcademic's retreat and coaching, I've learned to set and hold boundaries, better manage my workload, and create a path to mental, physical, and spiritual wholeness. I am so grateful for these experiences as they have kept me from falling off the metaphorical work cliff."
