Professional Development Programs
Summer 2027 projects will be posted in early 2027.
NEH supports residential professional development programs for K-12 educators, higher education faculty, and humanities professionals to study a variety of humanities topics. Participant stipends are based upon program duration.
Institutes are one-to-three-week professional development programs that convene K-12 educators or higher education faculty from across the nation to deepen their understanding of significant topics in the humanities and enrich their capacity for effective scholarship and teaching.
Landmarks of American History and Culture programs are one-to-three-week workshops held across the nation that enhance how K-12 educators, higher education faculty, and humanities professionals incorporate place-based approaches to humanities teaching and scholarship. The video below features educators who have participated in various Landmarks programs over the past 20 years discussing the power of place.
