It features both scheduled and on-demand courses on topics including teaching and learning skills, digital proficiency and technology, communication and collaboration, and much more.

The TLX hosts several college-wide professional development events throughout the year and an annual conference every spring. You can watch past keynotes by visiting Past Events.

The Academic Integrity Community of Practice meets monthly to share stories, anecdotes, suggestions, and offer support as we navigate the ever-changing world of academic integrity issues.   Go to Cornerstone for the schedule and to register.   

The Community also has a designated channel on the TLX Teams page. Visit The Teaching and Learning Exchange | Academic Integrity Community of Practice | Microsoft Teams to scan the channel, sharing articles or engaging in conversation.

This program is targeted for contract faculty and instructors who have been teaching at the college for fewer than 5 years (though it is open to all faculty). It involves approximately 15 hours of online learning as well as 4 synchronous online sessions.    

The criteria for successful completion includes engagement in discussions, journal reflections, group and individual activities in each module as well as submission of a final 'assignment' which synthesizes many of the ideas you generated in your culminating journal activities from each module. The intention is that this course will support your sustainable teaching practice.   

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a curriculum design framework that reduces barriers to access and engagement and greatly improves the student experience by guiding educators to design for optimum online learning.    

The UDL Certificate is offered twice a year. Upon completion participants will receive a UDL Certificate, which will be added to the faculty’s transcript, and they will receive the designation of “UDL Champion”. They may also add their “UDL Champion” certificate to their LinkedIn profile, resume or other professional social media outlets.
