Join us for the BAM MKE webinar on 9th June, where Emeritus Professor Rob Ackrill will provide background to the NTF scheme, based on his own successful application in 2014 and his many years of experience as a reviewer. Rob will describe how the process of applying for the NTF can be incorporated into a broader and longer-term career plan.
Participants will receive a practical step-by-step guide to drafting their own application to focus on:
-
Impact on students
-
Impact on colleagues
-
Impact on self
Given the need to demonstrate impact. Rob will provide examples, and participants will be encouraged to produce and discuss their own examples and also to ask questions of Rob.
Participants will leave with greater insight into the NTF award and an appreciation of how best to capture their current experience, as well as what they need to work on in the next few years to ensure their successful application. The timing of this event is intended to provide colleagues with preparation in advance of any institutional support and training they might expect to receive at the start of the new academic year.
