The New Academic Induction Programme (NAIP) for academics joining the LSE runs each year in early September, before the start of Autumn Term. It takes place over 3-4 days. The NAIP this year took place from Monday 16 to Thursday 19 September. The next induction will take place in September 2024.
All initial invites are sent out in July - new names are added to the list as we are made aware of them by their LSE Departments.
The first day of the programme includes a welcome from key colleagues at the School including the LSE President and several Vice-Presidents, which provides an introduction to different aspects of academic life at LSE.
After the first day, the programme focuses on teaching and learning issues, including lecturing and seminar teaching, assessment and feedback and academic mentoring and inclusivity.
All new academics are strongly encouraged to attend the NAIP. For new assistant professors who will be undertaking the LSE Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education, it forms the core attendance requirements for Module 1 of the programme.
If you would like more information about the NAIP, and/or have started teaching at LSE since it last took place, please contact us by email at eden@lse.ac.uk.
