What We Help Create
From concept to finished deliverable
Faculty Needs Assessments and Planning
Use faculty input to identify meaningful, data-informed development priorities. Move beyond collecting feedback to uncover actionable opportunities that can shape future faculty development efforts. Potential deliverables include faculty needs-assessment surveys, summaries of findings, and prioritized professional development plans tailored to your institution.
Faculty Guides and Toolkits
Create practical resources faculty can turn to when they need them. Bring together clear guidance, helpful tools, and ready-to-use materials that make information easier to find and put into practice.
Faculty Workshops and Asynchronous Learning
Engage faculty with learning experiences built around their needs. Provide flexible opportunities to learn, reflect, and apply new ideas through live or on-demand formats.
Presentations and Infographics
Make complex information easier to understand and engage with. Turn key ideas, data, and messages into clear, polished visuals designed for your audience and purpose.
New Faculty Onboarding Resources
Help new faculty start with clarity and confidence. Provide structured resources that connect them with institutional expectations, essential processes, available support, and opportunities for professional growth.
Annual Reports and Impact Stories
Show the reach, results, and impact of your work. Bring together data, accomplishments, and outcomes in a compelling format that communicates your story to faculty, institutional leaders, accreditors, and other key audiences.
Research Briefs and Evidence-Based Resources
Turn research into information people can actually use. Translate evidence, emerging practices, and complex topics into accessible resources that support informed decisions and strengthen teaching and learning.
Custom Teaching and Learning Projects
Bring the project on your wish list to life. Collaborate with CTL Catalyst on tailored teaching and learning initiatives that respond to your institution’s unique needs, priorities, and goals.
Why CTL Catalyst?
Higher education experience. Practical project capacity.
Built on Real Higher Education Experience
CTL Catalyst is grounded in more than 15 years of higher education experience, including faculty development, teaching and learning, academic leadership, and faculty roles. We understand the work because our approach was shaped by doing it.
Designed for the Realities of Higher Education
Good ideas compete with limited time, competing priorities, and work that cannot simply be set aside. CTL Catalyst provides flexible, project-based support that works within those realities rather than adding another long-term commitment.
Focused on Work You Can Actually Use
Recommendations have value, but sometimes you need the work completed. CTL Catalyst can help assess the need, shape the idea, and create the polished resource, learning experience, report, or other deliverable that moves the work forward.
Expand Capacity Without Expanding Headcount
Get additional support for a defined project, short-term initiative, or period of heavier demand. Add the expertise and project capacity you need without creating another permanent position.
Built Around Your Institution
Start with your faculty, culture, priorities, resources, and goals rather than a generic template. Develop resources and solutions that reflect your institutional context and are designed for the people who will actually use them.
Where Faculty Development Meets Communication
Make good ideas easier for faculty to understand, access, and use. Combine teaching and learning expertise with clear communication, thoughtful resource design, and practical implementation.
Explore Ideas. Inspire Practice.
Join us twice monthly as we explore scholarly research, emerging ideas, and practical strategies for teaching, learning, and scholarship in higher education.
