The TLU has developed the 'Enhancing Teaching Through Interactive Classes to Engage Students (EnTICE)' Digital Badge, as part of the Professional Development Framework of the National Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education.

As part of MTU’s commitment to excellence in teaching, learning and research for the benefit of staff, students, industry, and the wider community, MTU is offering staff the opportunity for professional recognition of their contribution to teaching and learning practice and leadership through the Advance HE Fellowship Scheme.

The TLU have developed a CPD programme entitled ‘EAT-PD: Enabling Academic Transitions through Professional Development' aimed at new and early career academic staff, i.e., staff that have been teaching full-time for three years or less (or some equivalent). This programme enables staff relatively new to teaching to develop their competencies in the classroom. The focus of this programme is to expose staff to a range of research-based teaching strategies that can be used to enhance lectures and support learning.

The TLU has developed the Master of Arts (MA) in Teaching & Learning in Higher Education which aims to equip its graduates with the knowledge, skills and competencies to: - Design, deliver, evaluate and reflect on quality, learner-centred educational programmes - Research key issues in teaching and learning in higher education (HE) - Contribute to the scholarship of teaching and learning.

This digital badge was developed as part of the National Forum fro the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education's (NFETLHE's) Open Courses for Professional Development by AHEAD and UCD Access & Lifelong Learning. As part of UDL@MTU, a Strategic Alignment of Teaching and Learning Enhancement 2020 (SATLE 2020) project funded by NFETLHE, this badge was delivered in Semester 1 2021/22 by a local group of MTU Facilitators. This badge has now been main-schemed and will be offered within MTU on an annual basis online via Canvas facilitated by Dr Marian Hurley.
