In January, staff members of The Institute for Learning and Teaching (TILT) staff were celebrated by CSU’s Employee Appreciation Board for their successful transition to online/remote learning during the early days of the pandemic.

“Staff and student employees were instrumental in the rapid transition to online/remote learning beginning back in March 2020 and continuing today and into the future by assisting with call-ins, offering trainings and creating online courses to facilitate the transition,” said Janet Mabon, fiscal and budget coordinator of TILT. “TILT staff worked many, many overtime hours, especially from mid-March 2020 through August 2020 to assist in this transition. Our student employees also assisted with the transition and were very flexible and creative in developing alternate approaches to in-person learning.”

TILT helps students, faculty and staff use research-based learning and teaching methods to support academic achievement, equity and post-graduation success for all CSU students.

In appreciation of a job well done, TILT staff received CSU swag and a pizza lunch celebration.

The EAB recognizes CSU employees groups that go above and beyond their normal duties, and anyone can nominate a campus unit online.
