Field of action "furthering qualifications"

The field of action IV comprises measures to further qualifications of teaching, coaching and supervising staff. Besides the strengthening of the training in teaching and learning skills in higher education for new appointees, junior academics and teachers at the University Medical Centre, specific offers are developed for personnel supporting Teaching and Learning (i.e. Deans of Studies, Representatives from the Offices of the Deans of Studies). Furthermore, gender aspects are being integrated in teaching. In order to raise the profile of these measures university-wide and to support the transfer into teaching, the annual ‘Teaching and Learning in Higher Education forum’ has taken place since 2013. The forum offers the opportunity to interchange and network with colleagues all about the topic of teaching. In particular it is also for collecting Good-Practice examples of teaching at the University of Göttingen and to make them available to the university public.
