Through our educational endeavours we have created significant economic, environmental and societal impact.”

His expertise in the logistics, transport and supply chain management is recognised internationally and his contributions to the sector have continued to improve learning and teaching for the benefit of today’s students.”
The National Teaching Fellowship Scheme and the Collaborative Award for Teaching Excellence (CATE) showcase the outstanding impact of individuals and teams who teach or support learning in UK higher education, recognising their success and providing a platform to share the learning from their practice.
Nominees are peer reviewed by teaching and learning professionals across the HE sector and are independent to Advance HE. Nominees are required to provide evidence of reach, value and impact to students and excellence within the teaching profession.
On gaining an award, each National Teaching Fellow has a role in becoming an ambassador for the scheme and supporting the ongoing enhancement of learning and teaching.
Alison Johns, Advance HE’s chief executive, said, “Congratulations to all our 2019 winners of these prestigious, national awards.
"Becoming a National Teaching Fellow or winning CATE team is a huge achievement. It can be truly life-changing. Creating ambassadors for innovative and impactful teaching who are valued by institutions and colleagues, and who can set in motion change and enhancements to make a really positive impact on student experience and outcomes across their institution and beyond."
