This two-volume book addresses the need for continuous professional development among educators in higher education to meet contemporary challenges and enhance teaching quality.

Teaching in higher education is a context-sensitive and culturally based activity that requires a dialogic approach between teachers and students, making it essential for educators to stay updated with the latest teaching strategies and methodologies. This first volume is focused on establishing conceptual clarity, pedagogical models and systemic frameworks that advance professionalism, underpin teaching excellence and support educational transformation in higher education, paving the way for in-depth investigation of pedagogical growth in specific contexts in Volume 2. The volume is organized into two thematic sections. Chapters in the first section explore the conceptual, philosophical, and systemic underpinnings of pedagogical competence, addressing accreditation, standardisation, and the balance between theory and practice, and laying the foundation for understanding teaching as a profession grounded in both technical expertise and ethical reflection. The second section situates pedagogical competence within institutional, cultural, and geopolitical contexts, and explores how educators in varied and sometimes fragile higher education systems negotiate development amid structural, digital, and socio-political challenges. Through case studies from Yemen and postcolonial settings, the chapters illustrate how contextual constraints can become catalysts for innovation and resilience.
