Teaching Recognition

The Teaching Recognition Programme recognises and promotes excellence in teaching and learning. We support educators applying for Fellowship with Advance HE.

On these pages you’ll find everything you need to know about taking this next, exciting step in your academic career, from identifying which Fellowship is for you, to support with your application. 

News and Events

What I find most fulfilling is guiding colleagues through the reflective process of developing their applications. This involves helping them navigate the framework, asking probing questions, and supporting them as they crystallise their thoughts to effectively showcase their excellent teaching practices. Witnessing this transformation, from initial discussions to polished, evidence-rich reflective applications, is inspiring. Beyond the mentoring itself, being part of the Teaching Recognition Programme community has enhanced my development as an educator. The supportive atmosphere and insightful discussions have broadened my perspectives on teaching and learning, while the training and professional development opportunities have strengthened my practice.
