ACCREDITED INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION For Teaching and Supporting Learning
Who are our HEA fellows?
How Do I Become an Advance HE Fellow?
HEA fellowships provide external validation of teaching excellence, nurture reflection about your teaching practice to enhance student learning, and usher you into a global learning community. HEA fellowship enhances your teaching portfolio. There are two main paths to fellowship, either through the “Accredited Path” which is managed by UVU or through “Direct Application” to Advance HE. The paths are determined by the category of fellowship you seek and there are four categories of fellowship.

HEA Mentors
Applicants are supported by HEA Mentors who are qualified HEA fellows. The mentor will guide the applicant through the fellowship writing process through dialogue and, if desired by applicant, review of teaching and/or curriculum. Applicants are encouraged to involve the mentor in reviewing a draft of the fellowship application to ensure it properly evidences PSF criteria at the level of rigor inherent in the sought-after category of fellowship.
