Faculty

CPM tracks are exciting and group dynamics bring learning to the highest level.
Each track is team taught by a combination of academic and practitioner faculty who develop and deliver the instruction. Academic faculty are regular faculty at Stephen F. Austin State University and other Texas institutions of higher learning. Practitioners come from a variety of positions in city, county, state, school district, and federal governments, along with administrators from the nonprofit and private sectors. The CPM Program Director is responsible for organizing and coordinating each track with significant input from the academic and practitioner faculty.
