Programs
The ALT Centre is pleased to offer services and programs that support Brescia’s delivery of high-impact learning practices, our adoption of an outcomes-based education model, and classroom teaching strategies that improve student learning.
We hope that faculty and staff members, instructors, and course assistants feel free to approach the ALT with all of their teaching needs.
