The UK Professional Standards Framework for teaching and supporting learning in higher education

The UKPSF provides a general description of the main dimensions of the roles of teaching and support learning within the HE environment.

It can be used to facilitate and support the design and delivery of initial and continuing education development programmes and activities within higher education institutions demonstrating to students and other stakeholders the professionalism that staff and institutions bring to teaching and support for student learning.

It can also be used to support senior staff seeking to develop policies and systems for the recognition and reward of teaching and learning support staff.
