For Educators
Bring the CERIC Method to Your Program
Equip your students with the skills to read, evaluate, and engage with scientific literature
The CERIC Method provides a structured, scaffolded approach to teaching scientific literacy. Whether you teach a single course or oversee a full program, we make it easy to integrate critical reading into your curriculum.
Who This Is For
Faculty & Instructors
Integrate the CERIC Method into your courses to help students critically engage with primary literature from day one.
Program Directors
Adopt a scalable framework across your department that builds scientific literacy skills progressively from introductory to capstone courses.
Librarians & Advisors
Recommend or co-teach a proven method that bridges the gap between information literacy and discipline-specific reading skills.
Why Adopt the CERIC Method
Makes the Hidden Curriculum Explicit
Many students struggle with scientific literature not because they lack intelligence, but because no one has taught them how. CERIC names the skills and breaks them into learnable steps.
Scaffolded, Four-Course Pathway
From foundational elements to capstone-level critique, our courses build on each other so students grow in confidence and competence over time.
Built for Higher Education
Designed with undergraduate, graduate, and professional students in mind. Every activity and assessment maps to real academic tasks your students will face.
Flexible Integration Options
Use our self-paced online courses, request a live workshop, or license the full program for your institution. You choose the format that fits your needs.
How It Works
Getting started is simple. Explore our course offerings to see how the CERIC Method fits your curriculum. If you want a tailored experience, request a workshop or schedule a call with our team to discuss institutional licensing. We are here to support your students and your goals.
