Information about the BALEAP TEAP Accreditation Scheme for EAP practitioners.
TEAP accreditation encourages and recognises the professional development of individual BALEAP members and those employed at BALEAP member institutions. It is a portfolio-based scheme which aims to be appropriate for all EAP practitioners.
Full details of the TEAP scheme, requirements for accreditation and much more can be found in the our online handbook.
By giving me impetus and direction, the BALEAP TEAP Scheme is inspiring me to find my place in this discourse community. It’s hard work, but worth it, not so much for the accreditation (though that is a bonus) but for what you discover about yourself and your practice along the way.

I’ve found the Scheme really motivating and inspirational and a great way to engage in professional development which informs my own practice and raises my awareness and understanding of professional standards. The process has been reassuring, rewarding and confidence-building as I evidence my practice and check off criteria that I have met already.
