Communities of Practice

Why join a CoP?

CoPs are cohort-based programs, where instructors meet repeatedly over time, to build community, relationships, networks and knowledge. Instructors who participate in CoPs can develop a greater sense of belonging and self-efficacy while supporting continuous improvement of teaching. At CITL we offer a variety of CoPs every semester with different modalities, durations and themes. Explore our upcoming options below.

When you register for a CoP you are committing to all events in the series – so please mark your calendars and plan accordingly!

Four adults (perhaps faculty) sit in a circle at student desks. There are three women and one man, all looking in the same direction and smiling.
