CETL:: Center for Excellence in Teaching & Learning

The Center for Excellence in Teaching, Learning, & Scholarship (CETL) provides leadership, support and advocacy of initiatives designed to enhance learning through teaching and scholarship. CETL cultivates an institutional culture that encourages, values, and rewards ongoing professional development that advances faculty effectiveness

Established by President Betty Siegel in the early 1980's, CETL was one of the first centers of its type both in the state of Georgia and nationally. During its existence, past CETL Directors have initiated both on-campus and statewide programs designed to enhance teaching and student learning such as the Georgia Conference on College and University Teaching (now entering its 12th year), the journal Reaching Through Teaching, KSU Faculty Leadership programs that provide an in depth focus on teaching-related issues, and a year-long New Faculty Success program.
