Overview
Responding to feedback from the sector, we have developed a specialist virtual programme to support cohorts of individuals to achieve Senior Fellowship.
The programme will provide guidance, dedicated writing sessions, review of a draft PSF 2023 application with one-to-one feedback, prior to direct submission to Advance HE. Led by an experienced PSF 2023 Consultant, the programme will support individuals to achieve Senior Fellowship where institutions currently don’t have accredited provision for these categories.

- Final Q&A session (60 minutes) - week 12 - 17th April 2025
In addition, participants will receive a review of one full draft application plus feedback delivered via a 45-minute 1:1 session.
