Readers will gain valuable insights into building productive relationships with students and colleagues, understanding the wider institutional context, and charting their own professional development journey. Each chapter blends theoretical foundations with practical applications, providing the tools to make an immediate impact. This practical guide will be helpful for new and early career Learning Developers working with undergraduate and postgraduate students across higher education institutions. It is equally valuable for early career academics and university staff in student-facing roles who wish to enhance their practice.
