Registration for courses in the Winter Semester 2020 will open on Tuesday, September 15.
Basic Level Courses
These courses provide the essential tools for good teaching. You will understand the mechanisms of teaching and learning, discover the factors that make university teaching successful, and learn to apply these to your specific teaching contexts. You will develop your presentation skills and learn how to guide your students’ learning through thoughtfully constructed evaluations. You will get to know a range of possible roles you might adopt as a teacher in addition to techniques to motivate and support your students’ learning outside the classroom.
The basic level certificate is granted upon completion of 60 study units (45 minutes each).
Advanced Level Courses
The advanced level lets you deepen the knowledge and skills gained in the basic level. Here you will find a wide variety of more specific courses.
We recommend completing the basic level before taking advanced level courses, but this is not (yet) a requirement. You can earn the advanced level certificate by attending a total of 120 units (45 minutes each), including the units earned at the basic level.
