Faculty-based Professional Development

In 2008, the Staff College is locating support services in each of the university’s faculties.

The Quality Teaching and Innovation (QTI) Unit has a comprehensive support program in place to support the delivery of professional development activities in each faculty.

These activities aim to support higher education academics and VE/FE teachers to meet the demands of the Making VU agenda in ways that are relevant to faculty learning and teaching cultures and work patterns.

The program is coordinated by Rhonda Hallett (Rhonda.hallett@vu.edu.au). General enquires can be directed to Rhonda.

The work of QTI Educational Developers is negotiated with the faculties through the Associate Deans and Senior Educators responsible for learning and teaching issues in each faculty.

         - Up to 4 projects per year

The other half-day per week (170 hours) is spent on completing projects that are the responsibility of the Staff College:
