The mission of the Center for Professional Excellence (CPE) is to coordinate, promote, and provide professional development and training for Winthrop’s faculty, staff, and administrators in order to enable the institution to meet and exceed its institutional goals. By partnering with Go2Knowledge to create the CPE Virtual Academy, we are able to expand the number of opportunities for faculty and staff development at Winthrop University by offering both live and on-demand sessions facilitated by higher ed experts on timely topics in addition to our peer-led on-campus development sessions.
