Following the success of the first edition, the EELISA Joint Pedagogical Support Programme (JPSP) returns, with a new batch of programmes designed to foster innovative teaching, support faculty development, and enhance student learning through collaborative and cutting-edge methodologies.
This initiative is part of the efforts carried out by the EELISA Innovative Teaching and Learning Hubs working group, aiming to integrate technology while promoting interdisciplinary collaboration, to serve as a catalyst for educational transformation among EELISA institutions.
If you are a teacher affiliated with an EELISA institution and are interested in enhancing your teaching practice, you can join this second cycle of training events, available from February to April. All training opportunities are accessible remotely. Please note that enrolment is limited for some training, and selection will be based on specific criteria set by the organiser. Successful completion of any training will be recognised through EELISA Credentials.
