Vice Provost for Continuing, Professional and Executive Education

Vice Provost for Continuing, Professional and Executive Education

Stony Brook University seeks an inspiring, entrepreneurial, and visionary leader to become the inaugural Vice Provost for Continuing, Professional, and Executive Education (CP&EE).

Role of the Vice Provost for Continuing, Professional, and Executive Education
The inaugural Vice Provost for CP&EE will join the university at a critical and exciting time in its history. While largely managed through the School of Professional Development, SBU has a history of offering quality CP&EE programs within individual schools and colleges. With the resources currently housed in the School of Professional Development, the Vice Provost will have meaningful support for tackling challenges that are vital to the future success of the university by creating an integrated vision for CP&EE and leveraging existing programs and resources in implementing this vision.

The Vice Provost for CP&EE will have an innovation and growth mindset and work collaboratively with academic units across the university to provide strategic direction for the expansion of SBU's revenue generating program offerings in alignment with university strategic priorities.

The Vice Provost for CP&EE will deeply engage with faculty and leadership across the university as well as external stakeholders/partners to develop a vision for the future and the path it will take to get there. The selected candidate will be an innovator open to new ideas, a champion for interdisciplinary work, and a leader infused with a collaborative spirit. The ideal candidate will have a strong academic background, hold the highest terminal degree in their field, and have extensive and progressive strategic-level continuing, professional, and executive education experience.

The Vice Provost for CP&EE will be tasked with expanding current efforts toward a recognizable institutional presence that drives innovation and success building upon the competencies and capabilities that exist throughout the Stony Brook community including those in the School of Professional Development.

The Vice Provost for CP&EE will support units in developing and administering their programs across three domains of CP&EE at SBU including:
  • Entrepreneurial Academic Program Development, which focuses largely on support to academic units (across school/colleges as well as centers/institutes) in their development of in-person, online, and hybrid graduate degree programs and certificates focused on serving traditional and non-traditional populations locally and nationally where there is demonstrated need. While the focus will be on Master's programs, programs at other levels such as 4+1 or non-degree programs will also be considered to the extent that they evidence potential for generating new or expanded streams of revenue.
  • K-12 Teacher Preparation and Educational Leadership Preparation, which focuses on supporting and expanding teacher education and educational leadership throughout the state through a variety of educational modalities.
  • Corporate and Executive Education, which focuses on providing leadership in workforce education to emerging, existing and transitional professionals through online, hybrid and in-person and custom programs to support the growing workforce/economic development and healthcare needs of our state. Collaboration with external partners such as the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute will be part of this portfolio.


The Vice Provost for CP&EE reports to the Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost and serves as a member of the University Council and the Provost's Leadership Team, working collaboratively with the President, Provost, Executive Vice President for Health Sciences, Vice Provosts, and academic Deans to further SBU's mission as a leading research university with a deep commitment to holistic student success and impact across the region, the state, and beyond.
