CHET Program

In collaboration with the Faculty of Graduate Studies, UTS has designed a Certification Program in Higher Education Teaching (CHET). Our goal is to help academic departments prepare Ph.D. students for the full range of faculty responsibilities and also for other careers where presentation and communication skills are needed. CHET program requirements are flexible and should not extend the time to completion or add unreasonable content to existing graduate programs.

* Only offered at Fort Garry Campus
