The Instructional Support Community (ISC) brings together instructional support staff from across UB to stay connected on tools, services, and strategies that impact teaching and learning. It’s a space to ask questions, share insights, and hear what’s new, from system updates to instructional trends, so we can all better support instructors.

The ISC meets periodically during the academic year and is open to anyone in an instructional support role, whether you are working directly with faculty, helping manage systems like UB Learns, or assisting with instructional planning and development.
