Is the recognition of lecturers in academia long overdue? In this episode, we discuss the new Academic Framework at Wageningen University and Research as a culture change that values teaching expertise and opens flexible career paths for academics. How much does your career depend on your chairholder—and how much research can you do as a lecturer? We also introduce the Lecturer Development Programme, offering space for lecturers to tackle their challenges and define their added value.

The panel of experts discussing the ACF included:
• Prof. Geert Smant, Chair of the Lecturers Committee, Laboratory of Nematology
• Denise Madegans, Project Leader of WUR Recognition and Rewards
• Dr. Melina Czymoniewicz-Klippel, Lecturer & Education Coordinator, Consumption and Health Lifestyles
• Dr. Tjerk Sminia, Educational Coordinator Chair of Organic Chemistry at WUR
• Jip Lauwers, Speaker, Trainer, Coach, and Psychologist at Downsideup
