Overview

During your first year as a new faculty member, you will complete your second and third FQAS courses, Student Success & Behavioral Management. These are two of the seven Faculty Quality Assurance System (FQAS) competency courses required for certification in the Wisconsin Technical College System (WTCS). These courses focus on the practices that are essential to creating a culture of continuing student success and creating a safe and supportive learning environment. The competencies for these courses will be completed through a mix of online modules, meetings with your mentor, meetings with your faculty developer and attendance at the 4 required New Faculty Seminars. Required online modules and supplemental materials and resources will be right here in Canvas. All competencies for this course should be completed by the end of your first year of full-time teaching at CVTC.
