HEaTED have engaged in discussions with Performance for All about how to provide a holistic solution for technicians' development whereby managers and practitioners could have a desktop toolkit to address issues such as:
As a result of exploring current provision with the Science and Engineering Council's Registration processes and standards now published, HEaTED have produced a draft UK-wide framework for Technical Professionals (currently only available to workshop attendees), the first 2 elements being ‘Professional Practice’ and ‘The Student Experience’.
This is a draft first attempt to look at a holistic solution to identifying what HE Technical Professionals do, where they are (there are 5 levels) and an opportunity to consider workforce development in assessing performance as well as planning for the future in the short, medium and long term.
- Assistance with job design
