Welcome to the Fall 2025 Professional Development Week (PDW)!
Theme: Level Up Your Teaching: Building Foundations
We’re excited for you to join us for professional development week! This event is CETL’s pre-semester conference where you can gain the professional development you need for the upcoming semester. PDW focuses on teaching techniques and tips that you can try this semester, technological trainings to help you gain the skills needed to utilize software and apps that support teaching, and networking to connect our campus community.
As you prepare your schedule, focus on the workshops that best suit your professional development goals and schedule. A wide range of offerings is provided, so pick the ones that will benefit you the most.
This session provides a comprehensive overview of past active shooter incidents and explores best practices for responding to threats on campus. Participants will gain awareness tips to help keep students and staff safe during an active threat, along with essential guidance on how to react quickly and effectively. The workshop will also introduce basic medical response strategies, including bleeding control techniques that can help save lives in emergency situations.
