Workshops & Sessions

The Center for Faculty Excellence (CFE) hosts a variety of workshops, training sessions, and events designed to support the BGSU teaching community. Center for Faculty (CFE) sessions are facilitated by CFE team members, Faculty Associates, campus partners, and other subject-matter experts from across campus. Sessions explore engaging, innovative teaching practices used to support students in their academic success and resources available to members of the BGSU teaching community for their professional development. CFE sessions are open to all BGSU instructors, graduate students, and staff members (administrative and classified), unless noted otherwise. 

See the list below or visit the Session Catalog for upcoming CFE workshops and sessions. New events are continuously added throughout the academic year, so we recommend you check this page regularly for updates.

To request a CFE session for your college, department, or unit, visit the Request a CFE Session page.

Want to share your expertise with the BGSU teaching community? We invite you to submit a proposal to Facilitate a CFE Session or Series.

Registration & Attendance

Advance registration is required for all CFE workshops and sessions. Registration will close one business day before the scheduled event. To ensure a meaningful and engaging experience for all participants, a minimum of 8 participants is required for most sessions. Sessions may be rescheduled or canceled if this minimum is not met. 

After completing the registration form, you will receive an email confirming your registration. You will receive an Outlook meeting invite with the Zoom link for the session (if applicable) one business day before the event. 

If you need services, assistance or appropriate modifications to fully participate in the event, please contact the CFE office or Accessibility Services at access@bgsu.edu or 419-372-8495. Please notify Accessibility Services and/or the CFE office prior to the event.

Attendance is recorded at all sessions. 

CFE sessions are best experienced synchronously; however, we realize that scheduling conflicts may not allow you to attend the session at the scheduled time. When possible, the CFE records virtual events and makes the recording with transcripts available to registrants after the session. We do not allow AI proxy attendance of CFE sessions.
