Abstract: The article focuses on the in-service training opportunities for college teachers in the U.S. The demands made upon American colleges and universities, especially since the World War, for an enlarged and more effective service have stimulated a widespread professional interest in problems of higher education. In response to this demand professional courses dealing with problems in this field are to be found listed in nearly forty university and college catalogues. Not only do faculty members and graduate students planning to enter the college teaching profession seek subject-matter courses in their chosen fields, but they also demand professional courses designed to improve their teaching technique and to provide them with a broad conception of the college enterprise. Systematic instruction in college administration and college teaching was first given at Teachers College of Columbia University and at Purdue University. The variety and scope of the courses on the organization and administration of higher education, which have now been offered at Teachers College of Columbia University for the past nine years, have been steadily increasing. Twenty-seven institutions offered courses on various aspects of college administration and college teaching during the past summer. Considerable attention was given to questions of college instruction and its improvement in the courses offered this past summer, both in the basic courses and also in specific courses on this subject, which were conducted at a number of institutions.
