Celebrating 221 UM teachers who earned their University Teaching Qualification!
Educators from FHML (114), SBE (22), FSE (15), Law (33), FASoS (23), and FPN (14) have officially joined the ranks of UTQ-certified teachers.
We held a festive ceremony featuring a congratulatory speech by UM Rector Magnificus Pamela Habibović, a presentation on Continuing Professional Development by Donna Carroll and Eveline Persoon (EDLAB), and an inspiring contribution from UTQ recipient Ricardo Orsini (FHML) on his UTQ project, The use of VR in medical training and healthcare studies.
Thank you to all our educators for the commitment and energy you put into high-quality teaching at UM. The UTQ certificate recognises your dedication, resilience, and the way you inspire, motivate, and support our students.
