The purpose of this paper is to address key elements of designing a course that aims at developing core competencies in teaching and learning for faculty members. The paper includes discussion of the initial preparation, objectives and learning outcomes, syllabus construction, assignments, assessments, grading, and teaching strategies. The paper is divided into sections, one for each theme or key topic in relation to course design. Finally, a brief reflection concludes the paper. The process of course design did not only allow to learn about the principles of course design, but also expanded one’s understanding of oneself as a faculty developer.
