Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø Academic Probation
New appointments to the Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø are subject to a probationary period of twelve months- except Lecturers (E&R) see below.
E&R Lecturer Probation
The probationary period is an important time for you to develop the skills and competencies you need to be effective and successful. We expect the Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø Academic to demonstrate that they meet the expectations of a Lecturer within 3 years, which is the standard length of probation for new Lecturers, but it may be possible to confirm your appointment earlier if all the expectations have been achieved.
Academics pursuing a career in Education and Research are expected to achieve professional accreditation by completing the or Aspire.
To enable us to properly assess your contribution at the Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø, the earliest we would assess your suitability for confirmation of appointment would be after one year.
