Your challenge:
You are responsible for several technical staff who will be teaching in a brand-new environment; a research laboratory or creative studio, for example.
Whilst many already have teaching experience, this is a new way of working. You want to support your technical team, empowering them to be confident and creative in their new teaching roles. You’re also aware that other department heads are in a similar situation.
You see the benefit of creating an informal cross-department support network with technical teaching professionals, but you’re not sure how to establish this and you don’t have the resources internally to deliver.
You get in touch with the ITSS Consulting team to discuss possible solutions.
Your solution:
We develop and deliver a bespoke Train the Technical Trainer Programme for your teams.
Our experts gather insights from participants before the sessions to ensure programme content is relevant to their roles and technical working environments.
ITSS Consulting develops high-quality resources that will be used as future resources. The programme features peer-to-peer evaluation and provides a framework for the group to establish an internal support network for sharing best practice.
Potential impact:
- The teaching experience improves for both technical professionals and students.
- New network members use this training and teaching experience as evidence to submit to Advance HE to gain professional recognition.
- Departments, teams and individuals benefit from the bespoke programme.
