1. Activities related to improving student experience and education enhancement activities from the School’s central Education and Student Experience budgets. 2. Professional development/training activities, such as: • Conference attendance, if training or CPD are the main focus of the event. • Enrolment on courses or training delivered by an external provider (where a request is for long term funding and more than £2,000, we will pay up to 50% in the first year and up to 25% in each subsequent year). • Attendance at technology exhibitions. **PLEASE NOTE: Funding opportunities for professional development/training activities in this financial year have now closed and will reopen in August** In general, participation in particular professional activities should not impact on teaching hours or assessment duties. Where this is exceptionally the case, it will be up to the individual faculty member to seek ways to manage this, with the agreement of a course convenor or the relevant line manager. If you are requesting budget which involves paying people (students, external organisations/individuals), please contact the Reception team for support with the payment process as soon as you receive approval of your budget request and before any work takes place.
