Leading Teaching Teams

"The course has been well run, engaging, enlightening! Excellent Tutor- good to be so flexible as to cater to the group’s needs and interests. All aspects were relatively new to me. I found them at a good level/easy (relatively) to understand. I would definitely recommend this course to teaching team colleagues."

Lynda Moore, Director of Teaching
University of Bristol

Leading Teaching Teams is offered as an in-house programme. It is designed to develop participants’ skills, capabilities and beliefs as leaders of teaching teams, at a time when they may be new to leadership and may not be line managing the team. The programme is run within your institution, and thereby has the added value of developing a community of leaders who can share and debate issues together. There is an LTT Brochure available to download (PDF).

Participant Profile

Participants will be established lecturers, new lecturers or academic teachers with responsibility for leading academic programmes and modules. Researchers or academics who would like to move into a teaching role will also find this programme both suitable and beneficial.

Focus

Leading Teaching Teams will enable participants to discover how to build, lead, motivate and support any team, specifically within an applied context of academic teaching. It will enhance participants’ capabilities as academic leaders, and so build their career potential.

The programme is led by facilitators with an extensive experience of academic team leadership and a thorough knowledge of the challenges involved in higher education teaching and learning. Moreover the programme will provide the participants with questions and tools to reflect on their own practice, and with a plan for continuing self-development. Consequently, this programme will help prepare participants for the many challenges of building and leading a team of teaching academics.
