Mahidol University is aiming to adopt the UK Professional Standards Framework (UKPSF) across the university and as such is looking for a UK institution(s) to help develop their staff in this area.
They would like the development to cover (but not be limited to):
- understanding of the UKPSF criteria
- assessment processes
- development and training of academic staff
The training workshop(s) can be either online or on site, and Mahidol University has budget available to cover relevant expenses.
The university has already adopted Baldridge criteria and AUN-QA criteria framework.
Responsibilities of the UK trainer :
The UK trainer is expected to provide training for Mahidol University staff on how to assess academic staffs' performance according to UKPSF guidelines (training assessors) as well as hosting workshops to understand the UKPSF criteria.
Benefits to the UK trainer :
Aside from the operating budget for this training, Mahidol University is open for other potential collaboration that may arise, including both research and academic areas. Currently, Mahidol University has several official active collaborative MOUs with UK universities.
