An overview of possible CPD activities
for UM teaching staff with a UTQ and a teaching load of greater than 160 hours per year
Once you have reflected upon your development wishes and needs, you’ll need to plan your CPD. To help you develop new knowledge and skills relating to your teaching, your faculty as well as various other UM departments, including EDLAB, offer a range of activities that may be relevant for you.
EDLAB activities will be listed on this page as they become available as well as on Facebook or LinkedIn. These are continually being updated, so please check back regularly. New activities will also be communicated via your faculty CPD coordinators. Also listed below are other UM departments offering training and support, which may be helpful to you in your CPD.
In addition to taking part in formal training activities, you may want to develop your own activities with colleagues, or undertake CPD in a more informal manner. This is fine so long as it suits your development plan and is approved by your manager or faculty CPD coordinator. Your CPD should also be relevant to the teaching competences outlined in this document.
Note that standard duties (staff meetings or compulsory training as part of a regular teaching role) are not considered as CPD.
