These workshops are aligned with the outcomes of the CTL’s Evidence -Based Teaching Certificate and support instructors in building the skills they need in order to earn the certificate. \n\nIMPORTANT NOTE: This work shop will run for one week (Mon-Fri) and is designed for you to spend 20-4 0 minutes per day (slightly different each day) engaging with workshop con tent and activities.
