Associates: application forms

    The Academy's Professional Recognition Scheme offers individuals the opportunity to gain recognition as an Associate of the Higher Education Academy.

    This is likely to be appropriate if you:

    • support students in practice based settings (eg. clinical or social work), or in work based learning, or
    • provide significant support to student learning eg. learning technologists and learning support staff, or
    • are in the very early stages of teaching eg. graduate teaching assistants.

    Associate status is closely aligned to Standard Descriptor 1 (SD1) of the UK Professional Standards Framework for teaching and supporting learning in higher education (UK PSF). 

    You can gain recognition by

    1. completing Academy-accredited professional development provision (DOC, 243KB), or
    2. on the basis of your experience in teaching and learning.

     

     

    Please note that new application forms were issued in January 2010, and we are unable to accept earlier versions.
