PRACTICE

​As academic practitioners, many in our network are actively teaching/facilitating higher education studies in various subject areas and disciplines as well as working outside of specified disciplinary boundaries. This broad base of professional practice embraces a wide variety of programmes from post-graduate certificates in higher education to disciplinary practice-based programmes in subject areas such as education, engineering and healthcare, business studies, arts, social work and more.

 

With Degree Apprenticeships, many academic practitioners are working within this area of practice in a new way, although many are still involved with programmes that started as Higher National Diplomas or Foundation Degrees, work placements (work-integrated), and the integration professional body standards into higher education tuition.
