Learn more about CELT

A center for enhancement of learning and teaching was first established in the Provost Office by the Iowa State University Faculty Senate in 1993. Originally known as the Center for Teaching Excellence (CTE), the center was reorganized and expanded into the Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching (CELT) in 2004. This name change reflects not only a strong emphasis on the Center's work: Preparing Future Faculty (PFF), Learning Technologies, and increased emphasis on Scholarship of Teaching and Learning.

CELT Preparing Future Faculty program provides seminars, mentoring, and pratical experiences to better prepare graduate students for faculty careers.

CELT offers Learning Technologies workshops, seminars, instructional design consultation, and development of and support for university-wide e-learning systems.

CELT sponsors participation in retreats and conferences and administers a variety of teaching and learning-centered fellowships, grants, and awards.
