THE ROLE OF UNIVERSITIES’ TEACHERS • academic staff are employed not just to teach,
but to teach well, to a high professional standard • a key responsibility of institutions to ensure their
academic staff are well trained and qualified as professional teachers and not just qualified in a particular academic subject
• their entire career from start till finish they have to remain up-to-date and proficient in the very best pedagogical practices and excellence in teaching.
