You don't have to pay that much to get top people unless they are famous - and there are many just as capable who aren't famous & would be honored to help

Hello! 

I'm working with my institution (James Madison's Montpelier) to determine what is an appropriate "going rate" for scholars. 

We often bring scholars to our site for talks and for multi-day professional development sessions. We generally pay $500 per person for anything less than an 8-hour day, and $1,000 per person per day for professional development sessions. We pay travel in addition to those rates.

We're trying to get a sense of if that's standard for the field or if we are short-changing our scholars. 

If you wouldn't mind sharing your rates for scholar-led programs, I would greatly appreciate it. Please e-mail my work address at [log in to unmask]. 

Thank you!
