Workshops are free and open to all UMUC faculty members. Faculty members
will receive an e-mail confirmation of their registration no later than
one week prior to each workshop. Those who register for these workshops
will also receive information on how to log on and access the workshop.
Workshop participants will receive a certificate of completion following
each workshop. Participants will receive a certificate if they participate
in at least 75% of the scheduled workshop activities and complete a final deliverable.

CTL Faculty Development Workshop Certificate Program The Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) is pleased to announce the launch of our Workshop Certificate Program (WCP) beginning March 1, 2006. The WCP is intended to assist faculty in planning a well-articulated, systematized path for faculty development. Faculty development workshops are included in the category of "workshops" mentioned in the Faculty Promotion Policy 181.4A under the Professional Activity criterion.
Types of Certificates
There are two certificates available-the Basic and the Advanced. The award of the Basic Certificate provides evidence that faculty have attained a basic set of essential skills and knowledge needed for teaching at UMUC while the award of the Advanced Certificate is intended to demonstrate additional breadth and depth in subjects critical to successful teaching and learning.
