Get a Universal Design for Learning Credential

It’s a great time to innovate in the classroom. Oglethorpe University, through a 2023 Strategic Initiative Grant, is providing funding and support for instructors interested in applying Universal Design for Learning (UDL) practices to the classroom through the CAST UDL Credential.

“UDL is a framework to think about how different tools and resources can be leveraged to reduce barriers and support all learners to engage in challenging ways of thinking.”  -CAST

Here are two quick videos about UDL in Higher Education and UDL and Retention.

CAST, a nonprofit education organization leading the UDL framework development,  offers three UDL Credential levels – UDL Mindset, UDL Analysis, and UDL Application. I encourage you all to retain Credential 1 – UDL Mindset. The estimated time to complete is 30 minutes to 2 hours. To register for the UDL Credential, email [email protected] to receive a registration link.
