Training topics may include reducing pronunciation problems, speaking up at meetings, negotiating, communicating with non-expert audiences, participating in small talk, and upskilling for managerial roles.

Faculty and Tutor Training for Writing Centers and Programs

Targeted training, from pedagogical grammar to corrective feedback techniques in assisting multilingual students, can empower faculty to work more confidently and effectively with them.

Training topics may include assessing writing, correcting ESL errors, giving culturally sensitive feedback, recognizing culturally-inflected discourse styles, using Global English, writing inclusive syllabi, and facilitating academic integrity.
