Center for Excellence in Teaching & Learning

At the Center for Excellence in Teaching & Learning (CETL), we offer opportunities for reflection and conversations on teaching and learning. We promote research-based pedagogies that boost student engagement and success, while supporting the professional development of our teaching community. Our programming is designed collaboratively with various stakeholders, aligning with UNI’s mission and strategic goals. Additionally, we act as a campus-wide clearinghouse, enhancing teaching and learning by sharing resources and expertise. We strive to be both innovative and responsive.
