Facilitate Adult Learning through University of Virginia’s Online Adjunct Faculty Academy
The Adjunct Faculty Academy consists of a series of noncredit online seminars especially designed for individuals holding advanced degrees who are interested in teaching at the college and university levels. Seminars consider strategies to: teach adults effectively; integrate adult learning principles; focus on expectations and challenges of teaching adults in academic settings; and obtain adjunct teaching opportunities. Eight seminars are offered through the Academy. A certificate of completion is awarded to those individuals completing seven seminars. All seminars are offered asynchronously online and are facilitated by experienced U.Va. faculty. For more information, visit http://www.scps.virginia.edu/certificates/facilitate.php.
