Center for Excellence in Teaching & Learning

Supporting and Serving EFSC Faculty

CETL's Vision

The Eastern Florida State College Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) cultivates a future-ready, student-centered teaching culture. We promote academic excellence by leading innovation in pedagogy, supporting high-quality and accessible learning design, and fostering continuous professional growth through collaboration and evidence-based practice.

CETL's Mission

The Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) advances student success by empowering faculty through teaching excellence, ethical and innovative pedagogy, and a culture of continuous growth. We champion high-quality, student-centered, and accessible learning experiences; lead responsible exploration of emerging teaching practices; and foster professional learning communities that support faculty development, leadership, and collaboration across the college.

The Power of Collaboration

Connections with our colleagues can lead to new ideas, whether our collaborations take place via faculty committees, on-site workshops, or virtual discussions. We encourage full- and part-time EFSC faculty to submit a CETL workshop proposal.

In addition to the events on the calendar listing below, CETL maintains select course topics through the Canvas LMS that faculty can join and complete anytime.
