However other excellent and innovative learning and teaching proposals can also be considered.
Maximum of £3,000 funding per application.
Applications will require an initial EOI, followed by an invitation to submit a full application form if the project is deemed to be eligible for TDF funding.
How to apply for funding
Applications will require an initial verbal discussion with the TDF Panel, to do so please initially contact CLT followed by an invitation to submit a full application form if the project is deemed to be eligible for TDF funding.

Reporting back about your funding
Following the funding being given, outcomes will need to be made available to share more widely with University colleagues. This could be in the form of a blog post or a short talk at a forthcoming CLT Lunchtime Hub and/or EduFest, the University's annual learning and teaching conference.
