Target Audience: Staff involved as reviewers in ADR for Academic, Research, Teaching or KE roles

This is a live online event. 

This event is for staff who are ADR reviewers to those in Academic, Research, Teaching or Knowledge Exchange (KE) roles. It is suitable for anyone new to being an ADR reviewer at Strathclyde as well as more experienced colleagues who want to refresh or expand their understanding. 

Learn how to deliver clear and specific feedback on what should stop, start and continue.  Be confident in managing an open two-way discussion on development needs and ensure that both reviewee and reviewer experience a useful and effective conversation. 

During this 60-minute session we will: 

  • introduce what the ADR process looks like from a reviewer’s perspective and key aspects that need to be considered; 
  • discuss how to lead a constructive and meaningful ADR conversation with your reviewee; 
  • explore tools and examples to support your ADR conversations; and 
  • offer an opportunity to ask any questions you may have about ADR or your reviewer role. 

In addition to this course, you may also find it useful to complete the ‘ADR - Setting SMART objective’ online module which looks at the ADR process and how to set objectives for ADR. This online resource will be of interest to all staff who are involved in the ADR process as either a reviewer or reviewee and should take about 25 minutes to complete; you can self-enrol by following this link: ADR Setting SMART Objectives  

Participants should also have read and be familiar with the Accountability and Development Review policy and procedure.
