Innovative Teaching for Today’s Students

The Center for Faculty Excellence (CFE) at York College of Pennsylvania fosters a community of educators committed to student success. 

  • The CFE supports faculty in designing learning environments that increase belonging, engagement, and academic persistence.
  • The CFE advances best practices in student learning assessment.
  • The CFE supports pedagogies that facilitate applied learning and the career-readiness of YCP students.
  • The CFE provides faculty orientation for new full and part-time faculty to encourage integration into the YCP community of educators. 

How We Support Teaching and Learning

Workshops, Events, and Resources

We offer professional development workshops open to all YCP faculty (full- and part-time) throughout the year. YCP faculty can find information about these events on the CFE Canvas site.  The Canvas site also provides access to resources related to pedagogy and assessment of student learning. If you have an idea for a workshop to support pedagogy or assessment, please contact the CFE at cfe@ycp.edu.
