This section brings together key information and guidance for personal tutors in one place, as well as signposting to other university support services and key contacts.
Along with the guidance here, Greenwich Learning and Teaching provide CPD workshops for personal tutors. Information about them and how to book can be found here.
The university is delighted to announce that we now have institutional membership of UKAT (UK Advising and Tutoring Association). This important international organisation is at the forefront of developing personal tutoring practice, literature and research. We are very excited to be part of this important area of HE tutor development, and to be part of this rapidly growing and very enthusiastic group of practitioners and researchers.
UKAT is the only UK organisation to offer professional recognition qualifications for personal tutors. As part of our institutional membership, we are supporting a pilot cohort of Greenwich personal tutors to gain professional recognition. Mentored by UKAT colleagues and by Dr Eve Rapley and Dr Rachel George from GLT, we anticipate that our first cohort will receive recognition in summer 2021.
