| Title: | Understanding the Global Marketplace - a UK Perspective |
| Author: | Lingwood, R. J. |
| Abstract: | Within the UK context, I will share the experiences of the Department for Continuing Education at the University of Oxford in developing short professional-updating courses and part-time modular MSc programmes in the sciences, engineering and technology. The Department for Continuing Education offers these professionally-oriented programmes, whether non-credit-bearing, credit-bearing or award-bearing, via its Continuing Professional Development Centre. The Continuing Professional Development Centre offers approximately 180 different course options on an annual basis and caters to the needs of about 1500 individual students through a mixture of face-to-face, online and hybrid (a blend of face-to-face and online) delivery. |
