On-request training

What do you need?

The CLT can provide staff development and training to suit your needs, whether related to curriculum, session or assessment design, or learning technology training.

Team training

Listed below are some examples of the staff development opportunities we offer to staff on request. We are happy to tailor a session for a group of staff or department depending on their need. Our list is evolving so please check back regularly. In line with curriculum principles of taking a ‘course team approach’ to development, we strongly encourage teams to access training together.

If you would like to request a specific session, please email tel@bath.ac.uk (for technology enhanced learning workshops) or clt@bath.ac.uk (for learning and teaching workshops). A member of the CLT will get back to you to discuss your needs.

One-to-one training

If you require one-to-one support, please book a one-to-one session with the TEL team or email tel@bath.ac.uk (for technology enhanced learning queries) or clt@bath.ac.uk (for all other learning and teaching queries).
