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.
Our Recreation and Wellness Department would like to offer a wellness-centric class as one of a two-part series that should help employees find time to unwind and destress throughout the day. This class would be offered by our wellness partner, Mighty Mindful Beings, and will be focused on what little things can be done throughout the day that will help employees find inner peace amid the chaos of a workday. This class would be an offshoot of our larger "Mindful U" class series that has run at each campus throughout this semester and is open to both students and staff members. This class should give staff members helpful tips and tricks to utilize their time and practice mindfulness and meditation throughout the day.
