The CAUT MOOC was awarded the inaugural 2024 CAULLT/HERDSA Award for Outstanding Leadership in Research and Development in Higher Education. If colleagues in your university missed out on this MOOC last year then Semester 1, 2026 enrolments have opened for the Contemporary Approaches to University Teaching MOOC. There are 24 modules to choose from!
This course is for those who:
· teach in higher education anywhere in the world
· are sessional, contract or continuing teachers.
· want content designed by learning and teaching experts
· want to reflect on your teaching and enhance your students’ learning
· want to evidence your professional learning
· are interested in scoping the course for their institution’s professional development program
You can choose which modules you explore and when, but we recommend one of the four pathways: new to teaching, enhancing student learning, enhancing your teaching practice or leading learning and teaching. Study is self-paced in two-hour modules that can be completed over a semester.

The course is presented under the auspices of the Council of Australasian University Leaders in Learning and Teaching (CAULLT) and is led by Professor Agnes Bosanquet (Torrens University) and A/Prof Marina Harvey (Macquarie University).
