The Center for Faculty Excellence (CFE) promotes excellence and innovation in teaching and learning through the professional growth of Creighton faculty and staff in the Jesuit tradition. The CFE facilitates a culture of academic rigor that supports best practices in teaching, learning, curriculum enhancement, and academic technologies directed to enhance student learning at all levels of the learning process (i.e., classroom/clinic/community, program, college/school, and institution), including assessment of student learning. The CFE programs/workshops in a variety of formats and consultation to individuals and groups, both in general and at the request of individuals, departments, and schools/colleges.
The CFE invites faculty and professional staff who teach, as a part of their ongoing formation, to actively engage with a community of scholars in teaching excellence by enrolling in programs that best match your interest and availability.
View and register for programs in Bridge. Programs are available live and on-demand (recorded).
Get ready to ignite your passion for teaching and student learning! Join us as Todd D. Zakrajsek, Ph.D., of Todd Zakrajsek & Associates, LLC, delivers a compelling keynote on “Teaching so Everyone Learns.” The symposium will provide faculty members across our campuses the opportunity to share their innovative approaches to teaching, learning, and assessment through poster presentations, round table discussions, networking, and more. Don’t miss out on this chance to enhance your professional journey. Mark your calendars and set aside the time to invest in your personal and professional growth. Registration will open soon.
Creighton faculty and staff are invited to sign up to visit and observe a class, whether that be in-person, synchronously via Zoom or Panopto, or remotely by exploring an online asynchronous course. This project will culminate in an open gathering for both faculty who open their classrooms and visiting colleagues to discuss lessons learned and to help build a community of educators at Creighton interested in pedagogy. Watch for additional information in the fall 2024.
Under development are additional fall 2024 programs and events. Watch for program and event announcements in Creighton Today.
