Welcome!
The Center for Teaching Excellence (CTE) was created to help area educators meet their ACT 48 credit requirements, master degree pursuits, and professional enrichment. The Center is a university-wide program administered by the office of Extended Programs. Our office is designed to be a Single Point of Contact (SPOC) for local educational entities, area educators and university faculty members.
CTE’s goal is to provide quality professional development opportunities through workshops and coursework by:
- Identifying educational training needs of the area’s educational communities.
- Developing programs to meet educational training needs.
- Helping area educators meet their ACT 48 requirements.
