The programme is free to University of Manchester staff and can play an important role in enhancing your professional development. It aims to enable you think more critically about your contribution to our university, as well as to develop a better understanding of the sector-wide changes in the Higher Education landscape. Applications are welcome from academic staff and PS colleagues. Co-ordination is via the Manchester Institute of Education (MIE), and delivery is by colleagues in MIE and from the wider University community.

Over 400 of your colleagues have graduated from the programme since it started.

There is a choice of course units that include topics such as:

  • thinking critically about policy (and the ideologies that underpin it) at a time in which the sector moves towards unprecedented levels of institutional competition and comparison;
  • looking at open practice, education and access, connecting open practices from across the University. Participants contribute to an open educational resource via an open publication;
  • exploring a range of assessment and feedback techniques to suit a faculty’s evolving courses.

If you would like to arrange a conversation with a member of the Programme team, please email seed.programmes@manchester.ac.uk
