Originally an NSF-funded project, the design of the certificate program was evaluated, revised, and relaunched in fall 2016. At the same time, Georgia Tech joined the Center for the Integration of Research, Teaching, and Learning (CIRTL), a 37-institution network whose mission is to improve undergraduate STEM education through the development of future faculty.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ETech to Teaching participants complete 10 learning outcomes that are organized around major pillars of evidence based teaching: how students learn, the impact of student diversity on learning, effective teaching techniques, creating and assessing learning goals, and integrating technology into teaching. Participants select from multiple pathways to achieve the foundation-level learning outcomes, including 3-credit graduate level courses, on campus workshops, or online resources. Upon completing the 10 foundation-level outcomes, participants receive the CIRTL Associate Level certificate.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThis year, a record 49 graduate students and postdocs received the Tech to Teaching certificate and 68 participants received the CIRTL certificate.
