Graduate Teaching Associate Program (GTA) (5 months)

The Graduate Teaching Associates (GTA) program is designed to foster the next generation of great teachers. The program will provide participants with the knowledge and skills to motivate and engage with students, embed active learning practices into their teaching, manage group dynamics, give and receive feedback, and design assessment and evaluation. This course is suitable for those who have already completed the Tutors@UQ program.  

The GTA Program consists of six modules, supported by contact sessions. For more information on the GTA Program, please visit the GTA Program website. Here you will be able to find the Program, outlined timeline of activities as well as the eligibility criteria.
