After 14 years of dedicated service at Tech, David Lawrence retired from his position as associate director of the Center on June 30th. Since joining CTL in 2011, Lawrence's unwavering commitment to meaningful learning, effective instruction, and excellent teaching has shaped campus culture. In particular, Lawrence has supported and championed Georgia Tech's teaching assistants and postdoctoral scholars through countless courses, workshops, consultations, and orientations. Join us as we wish Dr. Lawrence the best in this new chapter!

CTL EVENTS

Join CTL and the Center for Inclusive Design and Innovation for a three-part webinar series. These virtual workshops will help faculty create accessible instructional materials using the latest accessibility tools in Microsoft Office.
