Hybrid Training

Design

At Guttman, experiential and technology-enhanced teaching and learning practices are the norm in the classes held fully face-to-face. The Hybrid Training is a professional development workshop series designed to strengthen and enhance these elements, leveraging the innovative teaching methods and high-impact practices utilized in our courses. Through preparing faculty for developing and teaching hybrid courses, this training demonstrates and mirrors Guttman’s collaborative Instructional Principles and methods.
