In today's rapidly changing world, new technologies are constantly emerging. Higher education institutions must engage with these changes and adapt to cultivate future leaders and scientists. The needs of new generations of students are also evolving, making it essential to equip teachers with the necessary skills and tools to develop courses that meet these demands. The PROFFORMANCE+ consortium aims to promote innovative teaching and assessment methods. This summer, we have an upcoming online event and are expanding our network of PROFFORMANCE Ambassadors, inviting institutions to join us.

What to expect?

• The PROFFORMANCE International Higher Education Teacher Award 2024/25 recipients are sharing their projects and best practices.
• An introduction to the PROFFORMANCE Toolkit designed to empower educators to lead meaningful change.
• Insightful discussions on teaching methodologies and higher education policy.

The PROFFORMANCE Ambassador Roadshow has played a key role in promoting the PROFFORMANCE Assessment Toolkit, a free, three-dimensional framework designed to support higher education (HE) teachers and institutions in assessing and developing teaching competencies to enhance the quality of education. Alongside the toolkit, the International Teaching Excellence Database and the Course Portal offer valuable resources to foster continuous improvement in higher education with alignment of EHEA policy goals.
