New Instructor Orientation

All new CHS instructors are required to attend a new instructor orientation prior to teaching a CHS course. The purpose of the orientation is to connect CHS instructors with their assigned Gonzaga faculty mentors for course-specific training in course philosophy, curriculum, pedagogy, and assessment, while also learning more about CHS processes and timelines.
