Teaching Assistants (TAs) / CAs
Welcome TAs and CAs!
The Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) is here to help you.
Graduate and Undergraduate Students
The CTL recognizes the instructional support that students provide in the classroom. We collaborate with CTL Partners to complement teaching support from your school and department/program by providing a TA Training LATTE course. This cohesive set of instructional training materials can help you facilitate learning experiences in the classroom and online. Enroll in the self-paced LATTE course for teaching assistants and international teaching assistants.
