As part of the Continuing Professional Development Framework, the Academic Development Services team offer self-paced learning modules in Contemporary Approaches to University Teaching and Moodle training tutorials.
Each module is self-paced and should take approximately two hours to complete. You will be able to download the resources and sequentially work through the activities in your own time.
Participants will be able to generate a Certificate of Participation upon completion of the module. To obtain a Certificate of Participation, all activities within the enrolled module will need to be completed, and in some modules, you will need to successfully complete a module quiz.
