Online Teaching Credentials

The Center for Teaching Excellence provides development for faculty seeking to teach online. Maritime College’s online policy requires that all online instructors earn online teaching credential through the Center. Faculty can expect to learn about best practices in online teaching. The College also requires all online courses to undergo a review process prior to instruction, and every few years to ensure a high quality product.
