The Council on Higher Education (CHE) is a co-sponsor of the National Excellence in Teaching and Learning Awards because we believe that it raises academics’ awareness of the importance of quality university teaching and helps to steadily raise that quality. The awards also provide a strong link to the Quality Enhancement Project, which the CHE launched in February this year, especially to Focus Area 1: Enhancing academics as teachers.
Congratulations to all of you who have won awards and received commendations, who have shown that you are not just good, but excellent teachers. We honour you for your high level of competence, creativity and commitment to your students and your profession.

Once again, HELTASA is delighted to partner with the Council on Higher Education in offering the National Teaching Excellence Awards for 2014. These awards are an important national initiative not least because they contribute to conferring the same prestige on teaching in an academic career as has traditionally been conferred on research.
As HELTASA President, I salute the winners of the 2014 Awards and congratulate them on their achievements. Even more importantly, along with many others, I look to them to provide the leadership and direction in teaching and learning our country so badly needs.
