Applications are now open for the Postgraduate Certificate in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, which will be running over the 2021-22 academic year.

During this 12-month course you will develop enquiry-based approaches to engaging with educational challenges and contributions to improvements in the education of students at Cambridge and at tertiary level more broadly.

The Master's-level course, equivalent to 60 credits at FHEQ Level 7, is open to any Cambridge teaching staff with a minimum of three years' experience teaching in higher education - current participants include senior lecturers, librarians, teaching officers and more.

 

Recent participants said:

"The opportunity for group discussion has been invaluable and greatly widened my appreciation for different viewpoints and the challenges of teaching in different contexts."

"Overall this has been a brilliant course and an excellent opportunity to explore the educational literature and how this impacts our own teaching. The course has been excellently structured and planned to cater for teachers with a wide range of backgrounds and levels of experience."

 

The deadline for applications is Wednesday 19 May 2021. Interviews will be held early summer. More information on the outcomes and requirements expected for the course, as well as how to apply, are available at the link above.
