Center for Teaching Excellence

In concert, The Center for Teaching Excellence (CTE) and Office of Student Support & Success (OSSS) encourage and support a strong culture of teaching, learning and scholarship in the Ignatian Tradition for a diverse university community. Our staff work with faculty and students to help create an environment that encourages and supports student learning, faculty enrichment, instructional design, and the use of technology. We provide opportunities for faculty and students to work together to achieve academic success and have a positive learning experience.

Brightspace Support

We hope you are enjoying a relaxing break. If you are using some time to work on a course this week and run into problems, the CTE is here to help! Reach out to Mary Jane on Ext. 4040 or Cuong on Ext. 4365. The TechCons are also on break right now, so you cannot reach them. However, they will be back to help on Monday morning.

The Spring 2026 schedule for TechCons can be viewed here.
