Director’s Message

The Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) has been established primarily for developing and implementing quality teaching practices for the faculty and staff at ULAB. As a leader in liberal arts education, we must promote and uphold a culture where excellence is celebrated, and professional growth is ensured in all aspects of teaching, learning, and research. The values that ULAB stands for, particularly those that encourage innovation, the pursuit of excellence, and the love for life-long learning, partly define our role. In order to achieve those values, we need to clearly understand what good teaching practice means, without which quality education cannot be ensured. CETL hopes to put a well-structured and transparent standard for teaching practice. Active learning is one of the guiding principles of ULAB that directly speaks to a path of excellence in teaching. To enhance the core competencies of our faculty and staff, CETL will be instrumental in creating a learning ecology that facilitates liberal arts education. If you are a practitioner in any of the disciplines taught at ULAB, this center is for you. We hope to walk with you on the path to professional excellence.
