Applications Invited for Graduate Learning and Teaching Programme
Applications are now invited for the Autumn 2012 GLTP programme. Graduate Teaching Assistants are encouraged to sign up for the programme.
Graduate Learning and Teaching Programme
The Graduate Learning and Teaching Programme (GLTP) is designed specifically for Graduate Teaching Assistants at Brunel and provides a theoretical and practical underpinning to professional teaching in Higher Education.
The programme comprises:
-
2-day introduction,
-
six 2 hour sessions on six topics, plus
-
two support workshops.
Based on learning that takes place during the programme and practical learning that takes place when undertaking GTA duties, delegates are expected to produce evidence that will enable them to make an application to the Higher Education Academy to receive recognition as Associate of the Higher Education Academy.
The programme will run twice a year, once starting January and once starting in September of each year. Delegate numbers will be limited to 40 on each intake.
As numbers are limited for this programme delegates must apply for this workshop using the link at the bottom of this page. The closing date for applications is Thursday 4 October 2012. All applicants will be informed as to whether or not they have got a place on this programme by Wednesday 10 October 2012. Those who do not have a place on the September programme will automatically be placed on the waiting list for the January programme.
To apply, GTAs must:
· Be able to attend all of the sessions and support workshops, and
· Be teaching during the Term they undertake the programme*
*It is important that GTAs who start the programme are teaching during that Term as you will be required to submit feedback that you receive on your teaching practice. If GTAs are not teaching, they will not be able to produce this evidence.
Further details and application form can be found on the Staff Development website.
