Sandy Cope Building CPD Frameworks to enable Academic and Learning Support Staff to Deliver E-Learning in the Workplace
My Background • University Environment for 5 years • Worked in both ‘old’ and ‘new’ • Just completing an EdD in CPD implementation in HE • From the Business School originally • Seconded into Quality Department
Flexible Curriculum for Industry • Design or delivery • What does flexible mean? • Adaptable – Generic Learning Outcomes? • Fit for Purpose – academia/industry/both? • On or off campus? • Not Monday-Friday 9-5pm
Tradition • Traditional Semesters - systems or staff? • Following Funding Models? • Tensions between research and teaching? • Tensions between speed of academia and industry? Genuine or perceived? • Market Led Strategic Change (Nigel Piercy) vs not loosing ‘old’ knowledge
CPD • What is it? • Misunderstood • What can it do? • Build confidence to engage in change
How can Universities Help? • Creating the right environment • Baume and Khan (2004) “is development seen as fundamentally about creating contexts that make development possible? Or is it seen as the development of staff?” • Communities of Practice (Wenger) • Define Flexibility
