University Centres for Teaching & Learning strengthen national collaboration

On 19 March, colleagues from university Centres for Teaching & Learning (CTLs) met at Radboud University for a thematic day focused on strengthening collaboration and clarifying shared priorities.

Topics included AI literacy, sustainable educational innovation and the future positioning of the national CTL network.

The meeting generated input for a joint manifesto and roadmap that will guide collaboration over the coming years. This year, Ellen Bastiaens (EDLAB) and Dorothy Duchatelet (ECO, Open Universiteit) are serving as co-chairs of the national CTL network.

The network was established in 2023 at EDLAB in Maastricht to connect university CTLs across the Netherlands. Since then, it has gradually moved from exchanging experiences towards more structured forms of collaboration.
