Best Practice: Professional Framework for Advising and Tutoring

The UKAT Professional Framework for Advising and Tutoring sets out what UKAT believes are the core competencies that personal tutors and academic advisors need to effectively support student success:

• Supports the continuing professional development of staff engaged in academic and pastoral advising or tutoring of students;
• Demonstrates to students and other stakeholders the professionalism that staff and institutions bring to supporting student development and attainment through advising and tutoring;
• Acknowledges the variety and quality of advising and tutoring practices which support students in their journey through higher education;
• Enables individuals and institutions to gain formal recognition for quality-enhanced approaches to supporting students through advising and tutoring.
