This is a quick case study combining professional development with the University of Edinburgh's strategic digital plans describinbg "a digital culture that will culminate in a university where: every core service is fully digital; every educator is a digital educator; and every student is a digital student." I'm actuallyu hoping the students will be real students. ;) Anyhow, the idea here is that the university identified "Certified Membership of the Association for Learning Technology (CMALT) as an appropriate professional qualification for staff development" and then supported staff by holding regular meetings of the CMALT applicants group providing them with support to put together a portfolio.
