Teachers' Academy
The Teachers' Academy is a network of teachers who have invested their time in the development of teaching, teaching skills and students' learning processes. The establishment of the Academy is an indication of the value the university community places on the quality of teaching.
The Teachers' Academy logo, the acorn, stands for knowledge, a new beginning and the spread of wisdom. It is a sign of the distinguished university teacher as an inspirer of learning.
The oak tree, a symbol of knowledge and wisdom, stands for community and the Teachers' Academy as a network of scholarly teachers. It evokes the idea of a university community that is proud of its teachers, appreciates their skills and encourages them in their quest for better teaching.
