Staff and educational development, the systematic support for improving education and learning, has moved in recent years to centre stage within further and higher education around the world. This is reflected in the booming membership of professional bodies. Most new staff are encouraged to engage in staff development programmes, but receive little training to do so. This book has been written to meet this need. It is a practical handbook that introduces the key issues in staff and educational development, ideal for any education professional in the early years of their career at further or higher education level.
