Register Now for the Fall 2025 MCOT Cohort
CITL's Master Course in Online Teaching (MCOT) is a deep-dive into online teaching strategies that goes beyond earlier summer teaching institutes. Prior participation in an instructional development series is not required, but professional experience with university-level instruction is strongly encouraged. MCOT provides an opportunity for social learning and networking with a supportive interdisciplinary learning community.
The MCOT Canvas Course opens on Thursday, October 9, 2025, and our synchronous meetings occur at 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m. on the following four Thursdays - October 23, October 30, November 6, and November 13. Certificates will be presented to those who complete all course requirements. Register here to join the fall 2025 cohort.
Join the CITL Faculty Book Club: Strengthening Teaching Through Relationships
One book, two formats, endless opportunities to connect! This fall, we’ll explore Relationship-Rich Education: How Human Connections Drive Success in College (Felten & Lambert, 2020). Research shows that strong relationships are the single most powerful factor in shaping meaningful college experiences—and we’ll discuss what that means for our own teaching and mentoring.
Faculty and post-docs are invited to join us for engaging conversations across disciplines. Benefits include a free copy of the book, a CITL notebook, an Accredible badge, and the chance to recommend future reads.
