Come and find out about getting external accreditation for your wonderful doctoral supervision!
The UK Council for Graduate Education (UKCGE) runs a national recognition scheme for doctoral supervisors.
The Doctoral College is running two lunchbites to introduce staff to the scheme.
The Faculty of Health & Social Sciences is also running 3 sessions to support staff in reflecting upon their practice, and build in underpinning evidence. This is open to staff from all faculties to find out about the scheme and start to think about the different components. To submit the portfolio, you must have at least one doctoral completion.
