2009 Technical, Laboratory and Support Staff Conference

Enhancing the student learning experience

 
We are pleased to confirm that we will be organising a day conference for technical, laboratory and support / IT staff at Roehampton University. There will be a particular focus on the themes of our newly launched 2009-2012 Learning, Teaching and Assessment Strategy, which emphasises the enhancement of the learning experience through a creative, attractive, inclusive and accessible curriculum that promotes student success.
 
The aim of the event is to enable staff with technical, laboratory and / or support roles to share innovation and good practice, and to enable networking opportunities with colleagues from other settings. Academic staff are also warmly invited to attend.
