While women faculty in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) have made significant strides in the last several decades, gender discrepancies still exist in these disciplines. The strategies and programs for institutional transformation created by the first two rounds of ADVANCE schools to support the advancement of women faculty in STEM have gone far beyond administrative rhetoric. They have challenged and redefined the status quo and have benefited not only women faculty, but also the faculty at large.In general, at many universities and colleges, faculty professional development is not explicitly addressed. While research, and increasingly teaching, support has been available on campuses, other areas of faculty work (service, leadership, networking, etc.) have received very little attention. Yet these areas are critical to success of the faculty overall, and play an important role in the likelihood of advancement, particularly for women faculty.Academic leaders, and particularly department chairs, carry considerable responsibility for departmental faculty recruitment, advancement, and retention. In this respect, they are key players in the institutional transformation process and in setting the climate of their departments. Few resources are available to support this role, however, and many chairs have little regular access to other department chairs, who could provide peer mentoring. The goal of this ADVANCE PAID proposal is to provide department chairs with the resources, skill development, and peer networks that will support more effective department leadership and governance, and contribute to a more positive department culture for all faculty. The University of Washington will implement a series of two-day national leadership workshops over a three-year period for department chairs, deans, and emerging leaders in STEM. One workshop will be held each year at the University of Washington (UW), and in two of the three years, a second workshop will be held at an alternate regional site. These workshops are based on the UW ADVANCE program's quarterly leadership workshop series and two national pilot workshops. A pre-workshop mentoring-for-leadership event will be offered to women faculty at each workshop.Intellectual Merit: The intellectual merit of this proposal is the creation of leadership and professional development opportunities for STEM department chairs and emerging leaders, particularly women faculty. The workshops will provide opportunities for academic leaders to address issues of gender equity, leadership, faculty recruitment, faculty professional development, family-friendly policies, and policy implementation. Each workshop will result in the creation of resources to support and advance issues relevant to the success of all faculty, and women faculty in particular.Broader Impact: The national scope of the workshop allows the impact to be far reaching. The University of Washington will collaborate with historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and other institutions to include department chairs and faculty of color, particularly women. Holding workshops at regional locations will increase participation and ideally create local communities of department chairs who can continue to network and learn from each other, and potentially replicate parts ofthe workshops at their own institutions. The national workshops provide a venue for STEM department chairs from around the country to exchange best practices and strategies. Up to 250 department chairs and emerging leaders are expected to attend the workshops. The project team will also be available for consultation with institutions interested in hosting local, campus-based workshops. All workshop materials will be widely distributed via websites, presentations, papers, etc.

虽然在科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）女教师在过去几十年中取得了重大进展，但这些学科中仍然存在性别差异。前两轮ADVANCE学校为支持STEM女教师的进步而制定的机构转型战略和计划远远超出了行政辞令。它们挑战并重新定义了现状，不仅使女教员受益，而且使全体教员受益，总的来说，在许多大学和学院，教员的专业发展没有得到明确的处理。虽然研究，越来越多的教学，支持已在校园，教师工作的其他领域（服务，领导，网络等）。很少受到关注。然而，这些领域是至关重要的教师整体的成功，并在晋升的可能性发挥重要作用，特别是女教师。学术领导人，特别是系主任，承担部门教师招聘，晋升和保留相当大的责任。在这方面，他们是机构改革进程和创造部门气氛的关键角色。 然而，很少有资源可用于支持这一作用，许多主席很少有定期访问其他部门的主席，谁可以提供同行指导。这个先进的付费提案的目标是提供资源，技能发展和同行网络，将支持更有效的部门领导和治理部门主席，并有助于所有教师更积极的部门文化。 华盛顿大学将在三年内为系主任、系主任和STEM领域的新兴领导人举办一系列为期两天的国家领导力研讨会。每年将在华盛顿大学（UW）举办一次讲习班，在三年中的两年，将在另一个区域地点举办第二次讲习班。这些研讨会是基于UW ADVANCE计划的季度领导力研讨会系列和两个国家试点研讨会。在每个讲习班上，将为女教师提供一次讲习班前的领导力辅导活动。智力价值：这项建议的智力价值是为STEM系主任和新兴领导者，特别是女教师创造领导力和专业发展机会。这些讲习班将为学术领导人提供机会，以解决性别平等，领导，教师招聘，教师专业发展，家庭友好政策和政策执行的问题。每个讲习班将导致创建资源，以支持和推进与所有教师，特别是女教师的成功有关的问题。更广泛的影响：讲习班的全国范围允许的影响是深远的。华盛顿大学将与历史上的黑人学院和大学（HBCU）和其他机构合作，包括系主任和有色人种教师，特别是女性。在区域地点举办讲习班将增加参与，理想的情况是建立当地的系主任社区，他们可以继续建立网络并相互学习，并有可能在自己的机构复制讲习班的部分内容。国家讲习班为来自全国各地的STEM部门主席提供了一个交流最佳做法和战略的场所。预计将有多达250名部门主席和新领导人参加讲习班。项目小组还将与有兴趣主办当地校园讲习班的机构进行协商。所有研讨会材料将通过网站、演讲、论文等广泛分发。
