The Johns Hopkins Teaching Academy serves as an exceptional professional teaching development program. Our mission is twofold: to support the best learning experiences for our students by training our faculty and instructors, and to prepare our graduate students and post-doctoral fellows so they will thrive in higher education as academic professionals.
We offer graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, faculty, and staff from all divisions across Johns Hopkins University, college teacher training and career development opportunities through courses, workshops, teaching practicums, teaching-as-research fellowships, and individual consultation. Our programs and community are committed to advancing practices and instructional approaches that engage students, support improved learning outcomes, and foster inclusive classrooms.
We invite you to help us find new ways to build community and training that best supports your development as an educator.
The Center for Teaching Excellence and Innovation (CTEI) proudly hosts the Teaching Academy. The CTEI supports instructors on the Homewood Campus, as well as leads several initiatives across The Johns Hopkins University that offer programming and services to the greater Hopkins education community. CTEI communicates developments and strategies impacting education at JHU through a blog called the Innovative Instructor.
