Welcome to the Learning and Teaching Center at Highline College!

The Learning and Teaching Center (LTC) provides a variety of resources, services, and professional development events for the Highline instructional community. We engage instructors in research-based professional development activities to build and refine their practice. The LTC fosters a culture of learning and teaching excellence to promote quality equitable learning experiences for our students.

Our Vision

To promote a culture of teaching excellence at Highline College.

Our Mission

Providing resources to meet the professional development needs of instructors.

Have questions or need to contact us? Please reach out to ltc@highline.edu

While we are huge advocates of consistent engagement with Professional Development, we also value REST! Sarah Rose Cavanagh’s article “They Need Us To Be Well” in The Chronicle discusses the surprising recipe for building students’ emotional well-being in the classroom: rest and joy for professors.
