Teaching Dossier Workshop & Consultation

FCTL Advanced: Teaching Dossier 

At LLI, we understand the pivotal role a compelling teaching dossier plays in your academic journey. Whether you're applying for tenure, promotion, or simply looking to refine your educational strategies, our expert-led Teaching Dossier Workshop and 1:1 Consultation is your gateway to success. 

Faculty at LUMS are required to develop a teaching dossier which may be needed at various stages of their career for different purposes. A Teaching Dossier is a combination of documents- narrative descriptions of teaching, sample teaching materials and teaching evaluations- that highlights and summarizes faculty's teaching experience. 

In order to get a certificate for FCTL Advanced, it is advised that faculty participate in both the opportunities in the teaching dossier module as mentioned in the FCTL document. The Teaching Dossier Workshop will equip faculty with tools and resources to develop their dossier. Teaching Dossier consultations will allow faculty to submit their dossier to LLI for consultation sessions while developing their dossier for review and receive customized feedback. 

Join us at LLI and transform your teaching dossier into a powerful testament to your educational impact. We're here to support you every step of the way.
