Staff development opportunities

Human Resources, and People & Organisational Development are currently moving to the new University website platform, which means that these pages are no longer being maintained and will be turned off on Monday 28 May 2012. Please follow this link to the new pages.


Our aim is to give every member of staff in the University the opportunity to achieve their full potential as a researcher, teacher, manager, administrator or specialist service supporter. Staff development at Birmingham is delivered through a number of specialist units and departments

People and Organisational Development

People and Organisational Development (POD)'s activities include a wide range of personal, professional, leadership, and management development activities. As well as providing conventional development support such as face-to-face skills training for individual staff, they also tailor development for whole teams and departments.
