Who can participate?

The Online Teaching Recertification Seminar is intended for faculty who have already been certified, and have the responsibility to teach online for the University of Missouri System. Instructors must have completed an online certification through an approved avenue to be considered for this workshop. Certification is for 5 years from the date received and recertification is required before the current certification lapses. 

Are there prerequisites? 

Yes. Instructors should already have been certified for online-teaching through one of the approved avenues as directed by the UM System. To see if you qualify, please refer to this flowchart or contact us. 

(We suggest faculty be familiar with Canvas and other learning technologies before registering. Please see our Trainings & Events page for more information.)

What's the schedule and format?
