  21. Vice Chair & M62 Regional Update A few things to note from most recent RUG and other Tribal led events at Glyndwr University: • Tribal showcase of Tribal Edge. • Evolution of the product from e:Vision/online to Edge/Mobile has led me to start thinking about training solutions on mobile devices for staff/students and would be interested in any involvement in mobile device responsive training packages that anyone in the network may have used? • Maybe Adobe Captivate or other software?

  22. Vice Chair & M62 Regional Update • Tribal have implemented the Component Profile on the MySITSwebsite.

  23. Vice Chair & M62 Regional Update

  24. Vice Chair & M62 Regional Update

  25. Previous STN Institution Profile

  26. Vice Chair & M62 Regional Update • Given that it is now possible to view other institutions implementations of the SITS system there could be some gains made from using the system to offer training to other sites that have a similar component that you may have written training documents for. • Re Glyndwr, Chester University is geographically close enough that a training event could be held on either campus if common ground could be established with the potential to “learning hubs”. • Thoughts and opinions sought?

  27. Midlands, Wales & W England Update
