Embarking on teaching development journeys: achieving status of Associate Fellow (AFHEA) and Fellow (FHEA) of the Higher Education Academy

As part of the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers, staff on research-only contracts are allowed a minimum of 10 days per year to develop their professional competencies and gain experience to support their future career goals. Through discussions with their supervisors about future career aspirations to teach within higher education, Jordan and Yalda decided to use their 10 days on a pro-rata basis to undertake teaching programs provided by the University of Liverpool for staff to develop and enhance their teaching skills.
