New dates announced for online course development boot camps
Online Course Development Boot Camp is an immersive-style workshop which will provide faculty with hands-on training and work time to develop an online course. At the end of the boot camp, you will have developed a significant portion of your course and earn a badge which applies toward an online course certification.
Sessions will be offered May 18–22, 2020 and August 3–8, 2020. Email the Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning to reserve your spot.
Not available to attend any of those sessions? Contact the FCTL to schedule an appointment with one of our instructional designers. You can work with them in a self-paced model around your schedule and in most cases complete your course by the end of the semester.
For more information about the online course development boot camp, visit the FCTL website.
