Section B – Pathways to the Queen’s Merit Award

Applicants are required to attend an initial induction workshop where the method of submission for your chosen category of fellowship will be explained in detail. You can visit the QMA Website to download the Guidance for applicants and read the specific information about application routes for each category. The table below summarises the various options to work towards submitting an application:

Queen’s Merit AwardName Descriptor Status

Introduction to Teaching for Postgraduate Researchers (Taught route)

Descriptor 1 (AFHEA)  Accredited

Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education Teaching (PGCHET - Taught route)

Descriptor 2 (FHEA)  Accredited

Supporting Student Learning (Taught route)

Descriptor 1 (AFHEA)  Accredited

Experiential route Descriptor 1 (AFHEA)  AccreditedExperiential route Descriptor 2 (FHEA)  AccreditedExperiential route Descriptor 3 (SFHEA)  Accredited

Section C – Your QMA Mentor All applicants will have the option of working with a QMA Mentor whilst writing their application, who will provide specific and bespoke support in relation to the application writing process. The mentor will not support or coach applicants in any other areas of their professional practice. Associate Fellowship applicants are supported directly by the programme lead and will not have an individual QMA mentor.

Some applicants will identify a local mentor (i.e. within their own department/school/institute) in discussion with their Line Manager/Head of School/PhD Supervisor and/or the QMA programme lead. Individuals should not be mentored by their line manager or Head of School, i.e. the relationship will be non-hierarchical and outside of the normal line management relationship.

The most important factor for applicants when considering choice of mentor, is that the mentor has a good understanding of the UKPSF and familiarity with the QMA application processes and procedures. All of the QMA trained mentors have expert knowledge of the UKPSF and QMA; most are Senior Fellows (as well as some Fellows and Principal Fellows) of the HEA that have previously completed the QMA programme.

If you have identified a mentor before submitting this form please indicate the name of your mentor below. If you would like to be allocated a mentor after the induction workshop, please leave this section of the form blank for now.
