The Higher Education Learning and Teaching Association of Southern Africa (HELTASA) is a professional association for educators and other significant role-players in the tertiary sector.

Its membership is drawn mainly from staff in higher education institutions, but it seeks to work collaboratively with policy-makers, statutory bodies and other professional associations with an interest in higher education.

At the institutional level, within and across institutions, HELTASA seeks to promote networking between staff in central units responsible for enhancing educational quality and faculty-based academic staff with a scholarly interest in teaching and learning. It seeks to extend this networking through linking up with and promoting the establishment of professionals networks.

HELTASA’s main forum is an annual conference, but it also has special interest groups (link) that provide further opportunities for constructive engagement and collaboration.
