Access to Excellence
“Access to Excellence: A Faculty Guide“ was developed by the Center for Faculty Excellence in collaboration with UNO faculty members with the intent to provide easy access to ideas and strategies to enhance teaching and learning, strengthen UNO’s ability to educate all learners, and provide insights to advance faculty research and creative endeavors.
Mentoring
Mentoring Resources
The Center for Faculty Excellence will be facilitating two new opportunities related to faculty mentoring. General mentor training is available for current academic mentors and individuals who wish to become mentors. The TANDEM program is open to second and third-year full-time faculty who will be partnered with mentors outside their home academic unit who might share broader social and cultural affinities within our community of scholars.
This program is optional and designed to work in tandem with the mentoring that occurs in the faculty member's home unit. For a screen reader-friendly version of the documents below, please contact the Center for Faculty Excellence.
