Program or Cohort Partnership
Center for Innovation in Learning Design (CILD)
The Center for Innovation in Learning Design (CILD) brings researchers, educators, students and community partners together to study questions that matter in real learning settings. We work with partners to understand a challenge, design and test possible approaches, and share what we learn in forms educators can use.
Our work spans K–16 education and includes collaborative learning, STEM and engineering education, emerging technologies, and opportunities for students to engage deeply with ideas. Across projects, we ask how learning experiences can help students explain their thinking, solve meaningful problems, and learn with others.Clinical Faculty Program

Troops to Teachers Virginia Center
Troops to Teachers (TTT) Virginia Center is Virginia’s program for the Troops to Teachers National Office. TTT Virginia Center is administered by William & Mary for the Virginia Department of Education.
The goal of the Troops to Teachers Virginia Center is to help military service members who want to become teachers. The TTT office works with all colleges across the state to find the best option to become licensed as a teacher. It can be overwhelming to look at all of the options for becoming a teacher and TTT wants to make the process as simple as possible. All services are offered at no cost to service members. The TTT Virginia Center’s sole purpose is to help make the transition into teaching a positive one.
