Colleagues across our Faculty regularly demonstrate innovative and inclusive teaching practice, going the extra mile to ensure our students’ learning experience is the very best it can be. Whether you know a colleague who does great work or want to celebrate your own teaching practice, the University has several awards dedicated to recognising excellence in teaching and learning.

Advance HE fellowships are formal, national qualifications recognising your teaching and learning practice. The award is highly regarded across the UK higher education sector and is increasingly being recognised by international institutions. In order to achieve an Advance HE fellowship, you will need to demonstrate your alignment to the UK Professional Standards Framework (UKPSF).
