Core Teaching Certification
Applications for the Summer 2021 online cohort for the Core Teaching Certification |CTC| are now being accepted through May 14.
The CTC:
- Provides faculty the opportunity to learn pedagogical skills and information about teaching not necessarily gained during formal training in graduate school, helping them become more scholarly teachers;
- Recognizes faculty for their efforts in becoming more intentional, reflective teachers who incorporate effective practices in teaching in higher education; and
- Affords faculty members the opportunity to meet other faculty members outside their home departments who are dedicated to improving their teaching.
Faculty who successfully complete the Certification intentionally refine and enhance their courses with feedback throughout the reflective course design process.
- Faculty participants complete one (1) learning module and reflective activities in five core competencies.
- There are a variety of modules from which to choose, offered both face-to-face and online.
