This chapter introduces the first case: Central European University (CEU). CEU is a front-runner in the region in offering educational development opportunities not only to its own teachers but also to those who now teach at many other institutions of Central and Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and Middle East. The chapter presents CEU’s mission, highlighting its goals in terms of education and how they connect to CEU’s educational development programme that supports teachers to foster student-centred learning. It moreover elucidates how CEU’s initiatives cast legacy over the programmes at other institutions in the region, including two cases discussed later. The chapter presents CEU’s programme, its definition of student-centredness, and reflectiveness in teaching. It provides information on programme history, major programme assignments for participants to complete, ways of supporting the participants, and who the programme participants and graduates are, specifically those recruited for this research.
