Welcome!

3M Canada began collaborating with the Society for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education in 1986 with the creation of the 3M National Teaching Fellowships. These awards recognize teaching excellence as well as educational leadership.

Up to ten Fellowships are awarded each year. The award includes a citation and an invitation to participate in a four-day retreat at Château Montebello in Quebec. This very popular retreat provides the winners with an opportunity to share past teaching experiences and discuss new ideas.

There are now 238 3M National Teaching Fellows scattered throughout Canada representing a broad range of academic disciplines. They work individually and collaboratively to enhance teaching and learning at their own institutions and through larger collaborative initiatives supported by the Society.

Nominations for the Fellowships are submitted by teachers on their own behalf, or by their colleagues. Candidates need not be members of STLHE.
