Is a teaching qualification necessary to get an academic post or gain promotion?

At the moment a teaching qualification is not necessary for postgraduates who teach. However many institutions are now making accredited status a requirement for probation or recruitment to lecturing posts. This programme, nationally accredited by the HEA and recognised by SEDA, is therefore recognised across the HE sector. In this way it can contribute towards such requirements when applying for an academic post or promotion.
