English and Philosophy graduate students completing the Centre for Teaching Excellence's Certificate in University Teaching are holding teaching colloquia on Friday, January 5 and Friday, January 12, both from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. in HH 373.

The colloquia will feature research talks and interactive workshops on selected topics in post-secondary pedagogy.
