Over the course of this nine-month cohort programme you will explore theories of learning, develop a philosophy of teaching and learning, enquire into approaches to curriculum design, feedback and assessment, and expand your knowledge and practice through introductions to higher education research. You will work on a series of formative assignments during the year, culminating in an extended reflective account of practice to complete the programme.
This programme is accredited by Advance HE: successful completion will see you accredited as a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
The programme is designed for those with substantive teaching / learning support responsibilities, such as early-career lecturers or researchers, College Teaching Officers, and academic-related or support staff with roles involving teaching or learning support. It may be of particular interest if you are on the Teaching & Scholarship Academic Career Pathway.
Applications close on Monday 30 June.

The Advancing Educational Practice Programme is a taught, developmental course structured around six workshops, requiring a commitment of around 10 days' work over the year. If you are interested in accreditation as a Fellow of the HEA and believe that you already have the experience necessary, you may instead be interested in the Teaching & Learning Recognition Scheme, which supports you in drafting a successful application.
Alternatively, if you are interested in studying for a Master's-level qualification, you may instead wish to apply for the Postgraduate Certificate in Teaching & Learning in Higher Education, also accredited with Advance HE, which requires a substantially greater time investment (30-35 days over the year).
