Free workshops: Embedding Employability –
Following a high-level of demand we are now offering a series of free half-day workshops delivered by winners of the 2017 HEA Collaborative Award for Teaching Excellence (CATE)
The workshops will be a guide to embedding “employability” in the curriculum based on research commissioned by HEA, the hands-on experience of the Natural Sciences CATE team at Leicester and examples from various institutions.
It is designed to support those designing and delivering undergraduate teaching, e.g. module convenors, programme directors, educational developers and those in career support. Participants will learn about the different ways of embedding life skills in the formal and informal curriculum with illustrative examples and a focus on authentic assessment.
