The Flinders Teaching Quality network helps to identify and nurture potential applicants for ALTC citations, awards, grants and fellowships, whilst promoting a culture of inclusiveness and collaboration amongst Flinders teaching staff.

Membership of the FTQN is open for a two-year duration to any teaching-engaged academic staff and general staff willing to make the following important commitment: the staff member must have a bona fide interest in becoming an ALTC applicant through Flinders University, for an award or program for which he/she is eligible, sometime over the nominated two-year period and in receiving advice and support to assist the application. Recipients of ALTC Citations, VC's Awards, Faculty Teaching Awards, and Teaching & Learning Innovation grants will be directly invited to join the Network on the same condition.

FTQN Support Grants

Members are entitled to potential access to a one-off grant to support a teaching and learning activity that promises to engage with the ALTC agenda. The grant is intended to support an individual or group at any stage of pursuing an ALTC award or grant application. It may therefore be used to assist with such things as:

  • travel expenses to meet with colleagues to discuss an application idea
  • time-release to prepare an application or work on an idea
  • funding for support staff to assist with a project/ application
  • organisation of a collaborative function relevant to a project/ application.
