Length of Session: Two hours workshop plus 1 hour online preparation.

Update your awareness of what is expected in applications for HEA Fellowship and enhance your effectiveness in the role of C@N-DO Mentor.

What staff need(s) will the workshop meet?

  • I have been asked to be a C@N-DO Mentor – Help! I need to know more about what is expected in a Fellowship application.

  • As a C@N-DO Mentor I need to know more about the opportunities for  individuals to engage with the UKPSF & progress through C@N-DO.

  • I don't always know what advice to give to C@N-DO Mentees when they ask questions I haven't encountered before.  It would be good to discuss experiences with others in similar roles.

Through this you will...

Deepen your understanding of the UKPSF, ways in which to interpret the Dimensions of Practice for different roles and the criteria for the UKPSF Descriptors D1, D2, D3.  

You will become aware of common mistakes within applications which you can then help your mentees avoid and you will ensure that you are aware of national developments with respect to the UKPSF.  These may include new stipulations with respect to assessment for Fellowship.

Who would benefit from this workshop

Staff who are C@N-DO Mentors, or who would like to become C@N-DO Mentors, supporting others towards gaining HEA Fellowship.  Typically you will either already hold SFHEA, or be working towards an application for SFHEA.

Mentors are expected to also take part in annual updating.

Please book yourself a place via U4BW

From the U4BW course catalogue, type ‘ilt’ in to the course box to see all C@N-DO workshops.
