“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.”

– Aristotle

The line above has been repeated numerous times over the centuries but it has never been more appropriate than with the changes that we are about to embark here at the Office of Learning Technology (OLT). As of July 1, we have merged with the Centre for Teaching and Academic Growth (TAG) to form the new Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology (CTLT). OLT and TAG have worked collaboratively together and with a variety of partners across the university to enhance, support, and advance the teaching and learning environment here at the University of British Columbia. Under one organizational structure, we will be bringing together a community with diverse skills and expertise to better support the goals set out under the university’s Strategic Plan, Place and Promise.

Over the next few months, we will be undergoing a transition process that includes establishing a new website. In the meantime, you can still visit our individual sites for more information on the services and programs we continue to offer.

We encourage everyone to read our About page and Directors’ Messages to learn more about the possibilities that the new CTLT can bring.
