Application of learning and development of new skills will be assessed by the completion of work-based assignments, a reflective review and a presentation. You will also need to complete the University’s Managing Diversity e-learning module in your own time (approx 1.5 hour).
The sessions focus on developing skills in the context of working within the University. Each session involves a combination of theory and opportunities to practice the new skills learnt. The methods used will include tutor input, small group and individual activities, case studies, practice sessions and group discussions. You are encouraged to build on previous experience and to continually relate course content back to the issues and situations you face in your workplace.
A briefing will be held in October to give further information to those interested in this programme.
