Exhibit 1.2: A proposal for a code of ethics for engineering educators by R. A. Cheville and J. Heywood (Cheville, R. A. and J. Heywood (2015). Drafting a code of ethics for engineering education. ASEE/IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference, pp. 1420–1423).
This text is written for beginning engineering educators and engineering educators who have decided to give teaching the same value that they give to research, and to show how the exploration of techniques that have been used in the school system can help the development of skill in self-accountability, enable choices to be made about curriculum and instructional design, and thereby, to create education. Since we expect students to take responsibility for their learning, they in turn have the right to ask us to take responsibility for teaching excellence.

Australia. Most universities including the research universities insist that new staff complete at least a basic course on university teaching that includes peer evaluation of their teaching. Some encourage their staff to complete a graduate certificate of higher education. Most universities offer such a qualification and it is “free” to their staff. At The University of Technology Sydney new teaching academics are supposed to be given a reduced workload in their first year of employment to allow them to do the Grad Cert.
Sweden. University teachers are now required to have pedagogic training. At Uppsala University there is a course specifically designed for engineering educators. The general requirement at Uppsala reads “a prerequisite of an applicant’s educational competence as satisfactory are completed, relevant, pedagogy of higher education courses with a workload comprising a minimum ten full-time weeks, or equivalent knowledge. In special circumstances dispensation can be granted to allow the candidate to complete the required ten weeks of education during the first two years of employment. For appointments to professorships the pedagogical education must include a course in research supervision.”
United Kingdom. Initially intended to be compulsory but is now voluntary and overseen by the Higher Education Academy (formerly ILT) which offers Fellowships at four levels. It has established a UK Professional Standards Framework (UKPSF). Some universities offer post graduate certificates in higher education that are accredited by HEA. Many universities require new staff to pursue post graduate certificates in teaching and learning—usually two years part-time. Some universities require departments to have a proportion of qualified teachers. The new legislation may lead to this becoming a requirement.
United States. Many universities in the United States have training programmes. These range from a few days like the NETI’s (National Effective Teaching Institute) offered through the American Society for Engineering Education to more traditional structures of the kind offered at the University of Wisconsin-Madison where I was privileged to participate in a 2/3 credit course for graduate students on teaching Engineering and Science (See Courter Sandra and J.
