Staff Development SeriesSpring 2019Welcome to the Staff Development Series Spring 2019There are some key themes to staff development for 2019:

1. All events are linked with the UK Professional Standards Framework. We will encourage all academic staff to apply for the next stage of their professional journey of UKPSF through our own accredited scheme (DELTA Framework). Each event will make explicit links to support staff in their career development.

2. We have provided this very full list of activities which are available so that academic staff have a simple reference point. We have incorporated different types of event. For example, there are workshop events and discussion forums led by staff from BGU.So that you are not overwhelmed with Outlook invitations, we will send invitations monthly. We look forward to seeing you at some upcoming events.

3. During this semester there will be an additional programme of events to introduce and support our Digital Capabilities Framework and the VLE. You will be advised of these separately each month.

4. Each academic school has its own Learning and Teaching Advocate who will support the development series and will be able to offer guidance of the UKPSF.
