PROFESSIONAL RECOGNITION OF TEACHING AT STRATHCLYDE

The first step to getting started in the programme is to register to attend a “Professional Recognition of Learning and Teaching Information Workshop”. This workshop will introduce you to the Strathclyde Recognition Pathways, discuss the requirements for recognition, assist you in selecting the most appropriate Descriptor category to work toward, and provide information on peer support networks and developmental opportunities to support you in your journey to successful accreditation.

Welcome to Strathclyde’s Framework for Professional Recognition of Teaching. This framework provides a tool for you to plan your development in learning and teaching, and has been approved and accredited by the Higher Education Academy so that your participation in elements of this framework can be recognised through the award of an appropriate category of fellowship of the Higher Education Academy.

Participation in this framework is free and is open to all staff involved in learning and teaching, including those who teach, and those who support teaching, including support and technical staff.

Pathways to Recognition at Strathclyde

Strathclyde University offers a flexible approach to fellowship recognition, offering both taught and experiential pathways for Associate Fellow and Fellow of the HEA

For Senior Fellowship of the HEA (UKPSF descriptor category D3), application is through the experiential route.

Note that we do not offer a recognition pathway to Principal Fellowship of the HEA, and individuals can apply for this directly through the HEA. Support is available from OSDU if you wish to pursue Principal Fellowship.
