Heated


Why Join ?
HEaTED is a national training and career development framework for the UK Higher Education sector.

Our vision is to deliver tools and opportunities that not only meet the training and career development needs of technical staff, but also fit into the requirements of an ever changing HE sector.

Tell me more..

Development must be seen to be 'making a difference' to the University plan. Staff that deliver technical solutions to complex problems are at the centre of any University strategy. HEaTED's unique format pulls together a wide range of information, research and opportunity so that you don't have to!

The people that fund and shape HE today know just how important technical staff are and that's why we are funded to help you by the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) and the Leadership Foundation for Higher Education (LFHE).

But it's you, our members, that are central to our work. Members and technical staff themselves tell us what is needed right now. Membership brings so much more than access to a web site, it opens up a range of possibilities that can add real value and impact to your University Plan and Human Resources Strategy.
