Why?
This section will allow you to identify what the benefits of pursing HEA Individual Professional Recognition might be for you.
Here are four good reasons!
It provides:
- National recognition of your commitment to professionalism in teaching and learning in HE
- Demonstrates that your practice is aligned with the UK PSF (2011) or national standards for teaching and learning in HE
- Provides an indicator of professional identity for you as a HE practitioner, including the entitlement to use the appropriate post-nominal letters – AFHEA, FHEA, SFHEA,PFHEA
- A portable asset, that has UK-wide relevance and is increasingly recognised by HE and FE institutions and internationally
