What does serving as a Faculty Mentor for the Course Quality Program mean?
Serving as a CQ Faculty Mentor is a leadership opportunity for faculty who have successfully completed the Course Improvement Grant (formerly OCIP) . A faculty mentor is an important role in our program because as a teaching faculty member, you bring a real-world perspective to the application of the Quality Matters Rubric and Standards. Having also gone through one of our programs, you can provide the unique support that members of the program will need. Your expertise will be called upon in group meetings and through some of our online forums. You will work with one faculty participant in our program and serve as a mentor and guide on their course improvement journey. We cannot do this without you!
Who should participate?
Any faculty who have completed one of our CQ Programs and obtained Quality Matters Course Certification and have a strong desire to work with other faculty members on making improvements to their courses according to the Quality Matters Rubric.
