Assistant Professor Development Programme
The 2024-2025 schedule of masterclasses is now open for booking.
It is important that each Assistant Professor attends one of the sessions on 'Understanding the Assistant Professor Expectations', which will give practical advice on setting your objectives and meeting with your Head of School to agree these. If you cannot attend any of the dates below, please email staffdev@tcd.ie.
Below you will find a range of masterclasses that are available for the Assistant Professor Development Programme. There is an expectation that Assistant Professors will attend at least three master classes from the HR Assistant Professor Development programme each year to support their role.
To book a masterclass, please follow the link and register; you will receive confirmation of your place with a calendar invite. If you have any questions or queries about the masterclasses or development opportunities, please contact staffdev@tcd.ie
