Throughout the development and implementation of ambitious, yet financially and temporally finite research projects, the question of legacy is ever-present. How can the achievements and ethos be sustained once the initiative itself has concluded?

The National Technological University Transformation for Recovery & Resilience (N-TUTORR) was an innovative partnership across the entire Irish Technological Higher Education sector. Funded by the HEA, this project sought to embody a collaborative approach whereby colleagues across the Technological University sector could transform learning, teaching & assessment through the promotion and integration of 6 key themes:

• Sustainability and Education for Sustainable Development

• Digital Transformation

• Employability

• Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

• Universal Design for Learning

• Academic Integrity

The N-TUTORR Curriculum Framework is a defined, supportive pathway for all staff engaged in programme and module development. Through a legible collection of workshops and resources staff are guided through each stage of the programme development process. The Curriculum Framework curates knowledge and expertise from across the university, aligning it with policy and procedure to ensure clarity and accessibility.

In this way the framework promotes consideration of the themes mentioned above from the earliest stages of the design process.

This presentation will detail the concepts underlying the creation of the Curriculum Framework, the process through which the initial draft was designed and ongoing plans for future development, review and implementation.
