ACUE’s mission is to ensure student success through quality instruction.
We believe that every faculty member deserves the support and preparation needed to teach well, so that every student receives an extraordinary education.
The ACUE Effective Teaching Practices Framework describes how these powerful tools can help you improve student success in your courses.
Waubonsee considers professional development critical to the growth of our faculty and providing our students with a high quality education. To demonstrate the College’s continued commitment to support faculty with meaningful professional development to advance high-quality, effective teaching practices (pedagogy/andragogy), the courses below are provided at no cost to all Waubonsee faculty. Current New Faculty Learning Academy Members and those expressing interest during the Faculty Development Days will receive a priority "seat."
If you are committed to actively engaging in these faculty learning communities, we encourage you to learn more about these professional development opportunities.

~ Andrew Clements, Instructor of Business
