Welcome to Scholarship in Practice!

We are dedicated to exploring the rich, challenging, and rewarding journey of transforming professional expertise into scholarly contribution. At Scholarship in Practice we focus on the spaces where practice and research meet, where tacit insights from lived experience are named, framed, and translated into knowledge that can be shared, tested, and built upon within the academic community.

Whether you are a postgraduate researcher, early career scholar, a ProfDoc supervisor or programme director, or a practitioner-scholar navigating a professional doctorate, our aim is to provide ideas, tools, and reflections to support your development. You’ll find discussions on applied scholarship, strategies for surfacing professional knowing, and stories that highlight how practice-based insights can shape, and be shaped by, rigorous academic inquiry. You will also find useful resources and professional and academic development opportunities specific to the needs of ProfDoc PGRs and those who support them.

Scholarship in Practice is more than a blog: it’s a community of learners and professionals committed to bridging the gap between what works in practice and what counts as scholarship. We invite you to read, reflect, and join the conversation.
