Faculty development has been ongoing at Canisius College since 1992.  Cast in the Jesuit tradition, the Center for Teaching Excellence assists faculty -- and through them our students and the community we share -- in the pursuit of excellence in teaching and learning, development of the "whole person" and service to others.

Thank you for visiting our site.  We welcome your suggestions, invite your questions, and are ready to help you make a difference in the world.
