Academic Coaching: Training and support

Training

All staff with teaching responsibilities are required to complete the PAC training, and it forms a mandatory component of academic probation.

Training is delivered via an asynchronous course available on Brightspace. All activities in the course must be completed, as well as a course evaluation in order to receive the PAC training certificate. 

This certificate will serve as evidence that the the PAC training has been completed and that you are now ready to undertake PAC coach responsibilities.
