CTE offers an intensive program for Postdoctoral Fellows called the Teaching Development Seminar Series. The program introduces participants to key topics in university teaching and learning, and connects them with resources on post-secondary teaching. The program consists of six seminars, as well as optional activities such as individual work and course design consultations.  The seminars provide interactive and hands-on experience for participants and employ a variety of teaching and learning activities, such as group work, videos, and discussions. Participants who complete the program will receive a Certificate of Completion. This program is primarily intended for postdoctoral fellows who have not participated in any teaching development activities during their graduate studies.

The *seminar series includes the following six sessions, all of which must be completed during the given time frame:

*(Winter 2012 Session (Subject to enrolment numbers, the series may be postponed.)

Postdoctoral Fellows can also attend CTE's Faculty and Instructors workshops if the spaces are not filled by faculty members. However, these workshops typically cannot be substituted for the workshop series.

All interested posdocs are asked to contact Dr. Svitlana Taraban-Gordon to sign up for the program. Enrolment is limited to 20 participants per term.
