About HEA Fellowship (PSF)

Accredited by Advance HE, the Professional Standards Framework Continuing Professional Development (PSF CPD) Scheme provides routes to recognition as Associate Fellow (PSF Descriptor 1), Fellow (PSF Descriptor 2), and Senior Fellow (PSF Descriptor 3) of the Higher Education Academy (HEA) through one academic Masters level programme route, two mentor supported routes, and a route to support Post-graduate researchers (PGRs). Though not part of the Scheme, we also support direct applications to Advance HE for Principal Fellowship (Descriptor 4) - see below. The basis for all routes is the UK Professional Standards Framework (PSF) which outlines the criteria you must meet to be awarded recognition.

We recognise that there is a diverse range of teaching roles and environments in which colleagues work and the PSF CPD Scheme is open to all colleagues involved in these activities including PhD students and Research Associates who teach or demonstrate, and professional services staff (e.g. Library, Technical and Careers Service).

Gaining recognition through the PSF CPD Scheme is free for 缅北禁地 colleagues.
