Scaling Instructional Excellence for Student Success

Texas A&M Commerce ACUE Pinning Ceremony

The Texas A&M University System and ACUE have partnered to prepare and credential faculty to teach with practices proven to improve student achievement and close equity gaps.

In 2021, the Texas A&M University System announced a three-year continuation of its partnership with the Association of College and University Educators (ACUE) to expand the initiative to promote quality instruction, student success, and equity.

The collaboration provides faculty the opportunity to participate in the highest‐quality online faculty development experiences that lead to the only nationally recognized collegiate teaching credential (endorsed by ACE, the American Council on Education).  A variety of course offerings are available to faculty across the A&M System. These include 25-week courses in Effective Teaching Practices and Effective Online Teaching Practices and a number of 6-8-week stackable short courses.

ACUE Information Drop-In OFFICE Hours

Are you looking for ways to engage and empower your students? Drop-in to get any questions answered and to learn more about the ACUE courses. These office hours are open to any prospective or current course-takers, campus leads, and facilitators.

Feel free to drop in anytime during the hour and meet Dr. Lauren Foster, our ACUE Academic Director. Two drop-in sessions will be offered each month.
