Excellence in teaching is the hallmark of San Francisco State University. We take deep pride in our well-deserved reputation for providing our students with an unequaled education and our faculty with opportunities to enhance their talents and contributions at all stages of their careers. The Center for Teaching and Faculty Development promotes and supports teaching excellence by responding to the needs of the San Francisco State faculty in their multiple roles of teaching, engaging in the activities of professional achievement and growth, and working in and for an urban community defined, in great part, by its diversity.
In carrying out our threefold mission—to serve and support faculty as teachers, as scholars and professionals, and as persons—we have developed many resources for the journey ahead. In addition to a full program of regular workshops designed to enhance and inform your life as an educator at SF State, CTFD offers consultations with faculty and staff on topics related to teaching and professional development. We are always happy to make individual appointments or help with department-wide or group concerns in any way we can.
Please take the time to explore our web site. The Center is here to serve.
