[Foundations] Question re: policy and procedures for folks doingFoundations

[Coralie.McCormack]

Hi Tai,

Here are the University of Canberra responses to your questions.

 

We have documented the requirement in policy and it is available in on
the web in our policy database
(https://guard.canberra.edu.au/policy/policy.php?pol_id=3053).

The policy relates to staff new to the University with less than two
years tertiary teaching experience. 

Staff are required to complete the foundations program within the first
two years of their employment. The program is completed once.

 

Looking forward to hearing with others do.

Cheers

Coralie

Hi folks,

 

Quick query: La Trobe's planning to renew some of its policies and
procedures re: its Foundations Program. Can I get a quick feel for the
following? Do any of your universities:

 

- document the compulsory aspect of completing Foundations in academic
policy (ie, other than a letter of offer)?

- do those policies relate to existing staff and/or just new
appointments
- do those programs have an expiry period? For eg, folks do it again
after a set number of years.

Feel free to email off line t.peseta at latrobe.edu.au. Appreciate your
time.

 

Cheers, Tai
