UHI Staff Development Fund: Want to know more?

A short briefing session on the University’s staff development fund for colleagues who facilitate applications from academic partner colleges or executive office departments and individuals interested in knowing more about how the fund contributes to the course fees of accredited programmes of study.  The session will provide information on the funding criteria; the application process and how funding contributions can link to other professional development and recognition activities supported by the LTA.

Presenter

Debbie Wartnaby (she/her), SFHEA

Debbie’s previous professional background at UHI lies with the former Faculties and Academic Standards team working closely with academic staff, subject network leaders and the Deans of faculty by providing high-level administrative support for the faculties in undertaking their quality assurance responsibilities with programme and curriculum development. For two years, from Sep 21, she was seconded to the Learning and Teaching Academy responsible for University’s staff development fund, the University’s engagement with Advance HE Aurora Leadership Development Programme, and the learning and teaching enhancement strand of the mentoring scheme.

From September 2023, Debbie’s new role as Programme Development Advisor, based within the Academic Practice Development team and working across Learning and Teaching, means that she will support the development of new HE- level provision, including SQA awards. Debbie co-ordinates and manages processes and staff-facing professional development relating to the approval of new curriculum.

Debbie is a Senior Fellow of the HEA and continues to mentor others to gain accreditation via the Professional Recognition strand of the mentoring scheme. She is also one of the Advance HE’s Aurora Institutional Champions.
