Educational Consulting

The Teaching and Learning Centre's educational consultants are available to assist instructors and academic units with the development and delivery of innovative approaches to enhance their students' learning experiences. Each Faculty has an educational consultant who can provide discipline-specific support. We also have specialists in learning technologies and in voice and presentation skills.
