FACE (Forum for Access and Continuing Education Annual Conference) Presentation

Kathryn Sweet, Higher Education Manager, and Brian Paddison, Business Lecturer, recently travelled to Northern Ireland to present a workshop session and paper at the FACE (Forum for Access and Continuing Education Annual Conference) from 4 -6 July. They have been working as part of the University of Glamorgan’s scholarship forum with Professor Danny Saunders researching student characteristics and learning and teaching methods used with HNC, HND and Foundation Degree students in Business and IT.

This has been an excellent scholarly activity providing the opportunity to work collaboratively on a small scale research project with four other FE colleges and the University staff. Semi structured interviews were undertaken with staff in all five colleges and focus groups amongst the lead participants. Many thanks to all of the staff that took part.
