Technician's Commitment
The Technician Commitment is a university and research institution initiative, led by a steering group of sector bodies, with support from the Science Council and the Gatsby Charitable Foundation’s Technicians Make It Happen campaign. The commitment aims to ensure visibility, recognition, career development and sustainability for technicians working in higher education and research, across all disciplines. Universities and research institutes are invited to become signatories of the Technician Commitment and pledge action against the key challenges affecting their technical staff.
Since its inception in 2017, The Technician Commitment has grown to encompass over 110 signatory and supporter organisations working to champion technicians and their contributions to higher education and research.
The University of Strathclyde was one of the first signatories to the commitment in 2017.
Earlier this year, the University submitted a new three-year plan detailing how we intend to support our technical staff through the Technician Commitment. The plan is peer-reviewed, and in October we will receive advice and guidance on how we can improve the support offered to Technical Staff, based on this peer review.
