Abstract

HERDSA (Higher Education Research and Development Society of Australasia) are offering the HERDSA Fellowship Professional Recognition and Development Scheme in order to improve the quality of teaching across the higher education sector and thereby improve the quality of student learning and academic development outcomes.

For more information: http://www.herdsa.org.au/fellowship_scheme.php

As part of CQU's support for the HERDSA Fellowship scheme, staff are encouraged to attend this information session, to be conducted by Associate Professor Geoffrey Crisp.

You may wish to print the following resources and view them in conjunction with the recorded information session:
The Handbook for Assessors;
The Handbook for Registrants and
The Handbook for Mentoring.
(These resources are available at: http://www.herdsa.org.au/fellowship.php)

Fees for CQU staff, who are successful in their application to participate in the HERDSA fellowships, may be sponsored through Chancellery or other funding initiatives.

The scheme is designed to recognise higher education teaching and the support of learning and teaching which satisfies a set of quality standards related to a set of criteria. It then builds on that recognition, through advanced professional development activities designed to ensure that the standards are maintained and built upon. Applicants who meet the standards of the Scheme are awarded a HERDSA Fellowship (FHERDSA).

Teaching and the support of learning and teaching is used to refer to a wide range of activities in higher education which encourage and support learning: conventional higher education courses, on-line and distance education as well as academic development activities, learning support and leadership.
