If you are a doctoral student hoping to teach for the first time this semester, note that all new postgraduate or external part-time teachers are required to complete mandatory courses from CEED before they can do any teaching.

You must register on the Mandatory training for postgraduates who teach programme, which will allow you to book onto the live workshops and keep track of your completion status. The self-study courses can be accessed using the links below. Full details of the mandatory courses and optional support available from CEED is available at: Support for Postgraduate Researchers who Teach.

New postgraduate teachers must complete:

  1. The Moodle course Teaching Online: Next Steps in Design and Development – asynchronous (2 to 3 hours) [self-enrol, click the “Enrol” button]
  2. Online course: Diversity in the Workplace – asynchronous (1 hour) – report any login difficulties to [email protected]
  3. Live workshop on Teaching at St Andrews: an introduction – synchronous (1.5 hours) – 26th August, 7th September, 9th September
  4. Live workshop on Assessment and academic misconduct: an introduction – synchronous (1.5 hours) – 27th August, 8th September, 10th September
  5. Live workshop on Student Services: supporting students and teachers – synchronous (1 hour) – 26th August, 7th September, 9th September

Anyone who has completed the previous, in-person workshops does not need to do the online workshops again.
