Essential Competencies of a Valencia Educator

Teaching is a profession defined by essential competencies that develop from the changing needs of our educational community. These changes emerge organically from the community of scholars, practitioners, students, and others we serve. At Valencia, we have defined seven Essential Competencies that were developed by our academic community of deans and faculty. These competencies serve as the foundation of our ongoing development as teachers, counselors and librarians. Over the course of an entire career, faculty members continually develop their expertise in these essential competencies.

Faculty Development and the Teaching/Learning Academy support all faculty members as they expand their professional practices, examine their ongoing development of the Essential Competencies of a Valencia Educator, and engage in continuous improvement processes that result in student learning. As such, these seven Essential Competencies of a Valencia Educator form the foundation of all of our faculty development opportunities.
