The '''Teaching Department''' is responsible for providing educational content for EVE University members and the EVE Online public at large.  We are always looking out for knowledgeable players to help us in this venture. We provide live [[classes]], practical exercises, and a freely available [[EVE University Class Library|library of recorded classes]] on most aspects of EVE.  We also maintain a library of slide packs for our teachers and guest lecturers to use, all available to everyone in EVE Online community. The department is part of the [[Education Directorate]].
 
  
The Teaching Department schedules an average of 30 classes a month across all time-zones, reaching about 500–600 students per month. Most classes are open to the public; we are here to teach anyone that wants to learn, not just EVE-Uni members. We have regular guest lecturers supporting the Teaching Department, as well as many special classes and lectures given by well-known "personalities" from all parts of the game.
