HEA’s mission is to improve learning outcomes by raising the quality and status of teaching in Higher Education. HEA works with Universities to improve the professional experience of faculty through accreditation of educational development provision and professional recognition of teaching practice through fellowships benchmarked against the Professional Standards Framework
(UKPSF) UK. The UKPSF is the only national framework in the world dedicated to support the development of learning and teaching staff in Higher Education.
