Fostering the community
There are several ways you can continue to engage with the HEA community after Fellowship recognition. For example, you can become:
- an application reviewer,
- a mentor, or
- an affiliate practitioner.
You can also participate in conferences committees or become a member of the College of Peer Observers. All these opportunities may be formalised as part of the ‘Service and Citizenship Domain’ of your Academic Annual Performance Development (APD) process.
