hello -
If anyone could give me some informal advice here it would be greatly
appreciated!
I'm in a small department which is due to have a Teaching Quality
Assesment soon (four university funded posts, several research posts
and an administrator). We will be assessed alongside
another department with which we do not share teaching or students.
I am the most junior member of the staff and it has been suggested
that I should be responsible for administrating TQA on our
department's side. I have no previous administrative experience.
My questions are: is such a choice typical? What skills are needed?
Can an administrator (ie non-academic) manage such work? What is the
pattern in other departments? and, finally, roughly just how much
time does the process take up?
Any advice would be warmly appreciated.
Thank you
Vit A.
