Came home late last night after a lovely day out to find my certificate in the post. I am now the happy holder of a Postgraduate Certificate in Academic Practice, having passed the core module ‘Introduction to Academic Practice’ and the optional module ‘Assessment and Feedback for Learning’. I’ve known for a little while, but now it’s official. The programme was just pass or fail, but there were indicative marks given out for the core module so I know it was a good pass, in the ‘upper second’ region. Not quite as good as my other PG Cert, Leading from the Middle, where my final assignment got a clear first, but I enjoyed this programme a great deal and got a lot out of it. Definitely more where I want my career to go.

Me! First, and most important component of my PG Cert in Academic Practice confirmed as a pass today, making me a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. I am now a Bachelor, a Master and a Fellow, and the HE sector has a problem with gendered language. Not sure what the solution is. I’ve been a Certified Member of ALT for years, which is lovely, but it doesn’t quite have the esteem of ‘Fellow’ which I’m genuinely proud of.
