About the CLT
The CLT supports faculty and academic staff with classroom and virtual teaching techniques, course design, improving diversity, equity, and inclusion in the classroom, and professional development. We are here to help!
The CLT offers a variety of types of support to faculty. One-on-one consultation appointments are available year-round, both in-person and virtually. Please let us know when you make an appointment whether you would like to be in-person or remote (note that in-person availability may vary). We also offer a mix of in-person and virtual events like workshops, reading and writing groups, and learning communities to accommodate both full-time and part-time faculty. See our calendar for more information.
Note: for Canvas questions, we now refer faculty to two resources. First, try Canvas’s 24/7 Support (the Help button in Canvas) for any troubleshooting and “how do I” questions. Second, email canvasadmin@champlain.edu for assistance with enrollments, course imports, and problems that cannot be solved by Canvas Support.
As of mid-July 2024, the CLT has a new split location. Our collaborative workspace — which faculty can reserve for special projects or recording, use as a quiet workspace, or drop by for a cup of coffee or tea — will continue to be located on the second floor of the Miller Information Commons (the Library). All faculty can access this space with your Champlain badge. Staff offices are to be announced. Our former suite, MIC 211, is the new home of the Office of Accessibility.
Due to staffing, we currently cannot guarantee that a CLT team member will be available for walk-in consultations, so please make an appointment. Appointment waiting times may be longer than usual. If you have time-sensitive issue, please email clt@champlain.edu for the fastest assistance.
