IT Training Partnerships with Commercial Organisations Cardiff Diane Walker This project aims to improve the quality and range of university IT training in Cardiff through a joint venture between UWCC and established professional IT training organisations. Areas which will be developed jointly include course development management techniques, course presentation skills, course evaluation methods and course administration techniques. Many different forms of joint venture agreements are possible. An essential element of this project will be to explore these possibilities with a range of commercial IT training organisations and to advise and support other university Computing Centres wishing to embark upon joint training ventures. IT training development workshops for UK Computing Centre staff containing a large element of training provided by commercial IT training organisations are also planned as part of this project. _______________________________________________________________________ | | | In general the copyright for material on the NISS Bulletin Board | | is held by the CHEST & NISS Centre (University of Bath) or by the | | authors. | | | | Copying or reproduction of the material is permitted provided that | | | | (a) the source is acknowledged | | and (b) the material is not used for commercial gain. | | | | However, material must not be made available outside the academic | | community without prior consent. | |_______________________________________________________________________|
