Supporting Professionals in(to) HE Network (SPiHE) - Webinars

The Supporting Professionals in(to) HE Network is pleased to announce the next set of webinars taking place over the next few months:

The next webinar will take place on Teams on Monday 17th June at 12.00-13.00.

Pracademics supporting pracademics: what can dual professional developers tell us about building successful academic careers?

In this SPiHE network session, we will hear from colleagues who have moved from professional practice into academic development roles. In their current roles, each of the speakers support others to move from their own previous industry into HE - and will tell us how their own experiences of transitioning from a professional background into academia influence their approaches to supporting others. They will offer practical tips for dual professionals who have moved into HE, those who are considering the move, and those who support the development and enhancement of practice-informed teaching.

Our speakers are Ben Ferris (Head of Law School Training and Development, BPP University), Joanne Fisher (Principal Lecturer, School of Nursing and Advanced Practice, Liverpool John Moores University) and Felicia Tick (Associate Dean, School of Business, BPP University)
