Instructor Tools

The mission of UCATT is to build capacity for excellence in teaching. To that end, we offer a learning-centered toolkit packed with everything our instructors need: professional development courses, mentor programs, multimedia solutions, digital technology, and support services.   

We support teaching and learning in all modalities; in-person, online and hybrid. 

We partner with all instructors in planning, building, and facilitating meaningful learning experiences for your online, in-person, or hybrid course. We can help you choose and use technology; create community; design assignments; and develop assessment and grading strategies. 

Visit the UCATT website to learn more about these services and resources.

Pay One Price
