The Technical Teaching Fellowships for 2023–24, which are awarded jointly by the Education and Training Foundation (ETF) and Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851, were presented at the Royal Society in London on Friday 3 March.
As well as their Technical Teaching Fellowships, the new Fellows were also awarded Fellowship of the Society for Education and Training (SET), the membership body of the ETF. Presentations were made on behalf of the Royal Commission by Professor Dame Ann Dowling OM FRS FREng (Commissioner and Chair of the Industry and Engineering Committee) and John Lavery (Secretary), and for the ETF by Martin Reid (Director of Professionalism and Customer Experience) and Cerian Ayres (National Head of Technical Education).
Applications for Technical Teaching Fellowships are assessed against criteria including demonstrating highly effective approaches to improving teaching and learning in technical education, how the Fellowship will be used to inspire others, and the planning of professional development opportunities to impact on the pedagogy and professional practice of other teachers and trainers.
