## Teaching Excellence Awards
The Teaching Excellence Awards aim to **promote and reward good teaching** at the University. With four categories covering leadership, early career achievement, teaching practice, and innovation, the Awards **recognise the teaching contributions** of colleagues from different experience level and focus. OTA and TIA also include both an individual and group category to encourage collaborations in teaching and learning.
Awardees of this prestigious award also receive monetary prize for teaching development, and will be invited to contribute to share their experience, contribute in the University’s teaching and learning initiatives, and participate in our undergraduate curriculum implementation.
