National Foundation for the Improvement of Education: Enhancing Teaching Innovation and Student Learning Through Professional Development

The National Foundation for the Improvement of Education (NFIE) assists public education employees, including college and university faculty members, in their pursuit of innovation and improvement in teaching and learning. MFIE maintains that lifelong learning is essential for teachers so that they can provide students with a world-class education. To help educators reach this goal, the foundation offers funding for the development of new methods that will help all students, especially those who have traditionally been under-served, to experience academic and personal successes.
