Learning Transforms

Last week, we officially welcomed Dr. Vanessa Andreotti to UVic as our new Dean of Education. She was appointed in April 2022 with plans for a transition year leading up to her five-year term beginning on July 1, 2023. Dr. Catherine McGregor, our Associate Dean, Graduate Programs and Research, graciously stepped up to take on the position of Acting Dean for the faculty during this transition year. UVic Faculty of Education Community Relations Coordinator Jasdeep Randhawa spoke with Catherine and Vanessa to learn about their experiences with this process, their reflections on the past year and their hopes for the future.
