Courses and support

Professional development workshops, courses and events related to assessment and feedback.

We see assessment and feedback design as core elements of course and programme design so you will often find them covered within our broader provision in this area. More specifically:

Workshops and provision for University of Edinburgh staff

Assessment and feedback are core topics for all of the AdvanceHE accredited provision run by the IAD. To become a Fellow, Senior Fellow or Principal Fellow you will need to show good practice on assessment and feedback with evidence-informed reflection on these topics.
