The Bok Center offers workshops to provide training and practice for PhD students and instructors, both new and experienced, on topics in teaching, learning, and communication.

In addition to the workshops hosted at the Bok Center, we are available to create custom workshops for your department or your department's pedagogy course and can tailor the workshop to the goals of your group.
