Abstrakt: The professional development of academic teaching staff has become increasingly visible in higher education, even though there is still not enough evidence on how teachers change through such initiatives. Because flexibility in teaching is a commonly found demand, knowledge and core beliefs of one's own ability to teach are pivotal. We present data on N = 73 instructors at a German university who participated in a comprehensive training programme on academic teaching. Selfreported data on teaching-related self-efficacy, self-concept, and subjective knowledge about teaching and learning were collected in a pre-post design at the beginning of the programme and afterwards. Improvement in all three variables was found over time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
