Workshop Series

oin the CTRE’s expert facilitators for our workshop series. These 60-minute, interactive workshops bring instructors together to hone their craft and practice strategies for inclusive teaching, teaching with technology, and more.  

Each session has two goals in mind: improving student outcomes and making teaching more fun, manageable, and rewarding for instructors. 

Online Learning Consortium

What is it?

The OLC is a collaborative community of faculty, staff, and faculty developers in higher education that offers professional development opportunities for faculty who teach. CSU's membership means that you can access webinars, guides, and other resources, as well as participate in scheduled workshops, institutes, and certificate programs. 

How to get started 

All faculty members at CSU can start by creating an online account. From there, you can browse programs and resources as you please. The CTRE will also be supporting registration for various programs and will promote them here on our website and in our monthly CTRE Newsletter. Stay tuned for announcements
