Mission and Oversight

The Center for Excellence in Teaching, Learning, and Leadership (CETLL) provides faculty development opportunities to support innovative, equitable, and student-centered pedagogical practices across teaching and learning modalities, with attention to creative and effective uses of instructional technology, as well as opportunities for professional growth, leadership development, and overall faculty wellness.  CETLL aims to build a collaborative community of inquiry for all faculty at Queens College so that they, in turn, can foster learning environments that support student success, in all its forms.

The Center reports to the Office of the Provost, and receives oversight and direction from the Teaching Excellence and Evaluation Committee of the Queens College Academic Senate.
