Professional Development
Educational delivery in Higher Education is changing rapidly, but the paramount focus
at an Adventist Christian Institution of Higher Education remains - how are you sharing
your faith within the framework of a biblical worldview, and how does your biblical
perspective shape your classroom teaching?
The Center for Teaching Excellence and Biblical Foundations of Faith and Learning supports the continued education and professional growth of all faculty members on
Southern's campus. To facilitate this, we offer several resources available to full-time,
part-time, and adjunct professors throughout the year. Click on an opportunity below

Faculty Development
Wednesday's professional development luncheons have been designed to provide faculty a way to explore new educational strategies, learn about technological tools, discuss their research activities, and more. This forum allows faculty members to learn from each other and grow as professionals and effective educators. We collaborate with various departments across campus and welcome any teaching faculty to attend.
Summer Institute
The Summer Institute is a one-week professional growth opportunity offered each summer that focuses on the incorporation of biblical foundations into course development. Participating faculty will design or redesign one course of their choosing to create a biblically-grounded and student-centered learning environment.
Teaching and Learning Videos
The CTE-BFFL has a small collection of Magna videos that can be checked out for individual viewing. Magna's video-based programs are designed to answer specific questions related to teaching and learning. They deliver actionable insights in highly focused presentations designed to fit busy schedules.All Events
