Aurora Leadership Development Programme for Women
TU Dublin People Development has identified Leadership Development as a priority for all staff who are responsible for managing people and for those who aspire to leadership roles. The Aurora Leadership Development Programme however, is specifically designed to support women to understand and address barriers to progression identified in the HEA Review of Gender Equality in Higher Education (June 2016) , the Gender Task Force Action Plan (2018), and to support the recommendations of the TU Dublin Athena SWAN Action Plan.
The programme is for women in lecturer/senior lecturer, research, professional services and technical roles across the University. The number of places are limited and an evaluation panel will review all applications to select the Aurora cohort.
The programme for 2024 is shown below with eight compulsory modules which where delivered as follows:
