UConn’s Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) exists to support the teaching and learning mission of the university. We believe excellence in teaching and learning is central to the success of UConn Nation.

• Through workshops, summer and winter institutes, faculty learning communities, and consultations, we provide extensive programming and support for UConn faculty and teaching assistants to deliver world class instruction and create equitable, inclusive, and engaged learning for all of our students.
• We leverage our expertise in instructional design, media production, educational technology, and workforce development solutions to facilitate the development of new and innovative academic programs that meet the needs of an increasingly diverse global landscape of learners and stakeholders.
• As thought leaders in higher education, we aim to ensure that physical (and virtual) UConn classroom learning environments maximize the affordances of active learning and ever changing educational technologies.

We take great pride in our work. We love talking about our work and sharing our successes and challenges with others. It is work that gives us meaning and purpose on a daily basis. And, we hope that in some measure our work inspires you.

Many of the programs and resources we provide faculty and students are the direct result of donor support. The collective generosity of our alumni and friends ensures the continued success of the Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning. To make a gift to CETL, click on the Donate Now link below.
