The Fundamentals Block session is the Fundamentals of University Teaching program in two weeks. It is a highly intensive environment, and the Block session requires a full commitment for the two weeks.
How to register
The Fundamentals Block session is offered each April, August*, and December, and registration is limited to 16 participants. To register, participants must:
- be Master's or PhD students officially registered at the University of Waterloo
- commit for the entire two-weeks of the session
- express interest by contacting cte-grad@uwaterloo.ca
*NOTE - the August Fundamentals Block session in Spring 2018 has been cancelled due to the closure of our workshop space scheduled for that time. The next block offering will be in December 2018.
