Here’s a look at our instructor selection and training process:

First, we’ll get to know you in an interview to ensure you have strong communication skills that enable you to effectively share your expertise.
Step 2: Author Interview
Next, you will go through a detailed checklist with course authors to make sure you have both the technical expertise and practical work experience necessary to teach the course.

You will go through our intensive Train-the-Trainer program, where you will learn the latest techniques in Active Learning. To pass the program, you must deliver three course presentations and receive excellent evaluations.

Step 6: Solo Teaching
Finally, you will be assigned a course to teach on your own. Course attendees complete detailed evaluations of all instructors, and these are used to pinpoint ongoing development activities that constantly improve their scores.
