Undergraduate Teaching Assistant (UTA) Training

Congratulations on your appointment as an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant at CWRU! It is a great opportunity to participate in promoting the growth and learning of your academic peers, and perhaps learn a few things yourself, too!

In order to do this successfully, you will need some fundamental proficiency in the application of relevant University policies, including Academic Integrity and FERPA. These policies form the foundation of the work that you will be doing, be it grading, holding office hours, or facilitating recitations - none of which happen in a vacuum. All of them involve people, who can reasonably expect fair and respectful treatment from their UTAs.

These are the steps that you need to complete by September 30, 2024 in order to be in compliance with University policy:

  1. Register for UNIV300 (Professional Development for Undergraduate Teaching Assistants) on the Student Information System (SIS). Once you have completed all the requirements, you will receive a notation to this effect on your academic transcript. Please note: This will open for registration towards the end of July 2024.
  2. Complete the Canvas modules for UNIV300 (you can self-enroll here on or after August 1, 2024).
  3. Watch the asynchronous modules for UNIV300 here on or after August 1, 2024, and respond to the quiz questions embedded in each module.

If you have any questions about the process, please do not hesitate to reach out to us: utatraining@case.edu.
