Professional Development Week - Info & Link to Book

Professional Development Week Booking Link:

https://profdevweeknov2016.sched.org

 

For the first time ever, we are planning the week with one key day per department and for undergraduate/postgraduate courses, so that we are not asking too much of individual staff and students and leaving some days during the week for reading and revision.

The plan for the week looks like this -

·         Monday 31 Oct: AFE and Law students

·         Tuesday 1 Nov: Management students

·         Thursday 3 Nov: MODB and STEHM students

·         Friday 4 Nov: Postgraduate students

 

A big thank you to everyone who has got involved, offered support or given ideas for sessions.   As a regular contributor myself, I know it’s a big ask on top of the day job and I fully appreciate the effort involved.  

 

Ultimately, the week is designed to help our students become more employable in a competitive jobs market – and that helps all of us achieve our goals at the end of the day.

 

Please do give the event a shout out in UG and PG lectures and encourage students to book onto sessions relevant to them. I have attached a promotional slide for this purpose.

 

Other key messages which I’d value your support in getting over to students:

 

·        Booking is now a simpler two-step process when students click on the  event link:

 

                       https://profdevweeknov2016.sched.org

 

Step 1 – Book onto Professional Development Week via Eventbrite.    (They then get an email from Eventbrite with the booking link for the Professional Development Week site to select the sessions they want to attend)

 

Step 2 – Use the Professional Development Week site to select the sessions they want to attend during the week.

 

·         It’s now Professional Development Week - not Reading Week (or a half-term holiday . . . )

 

Please help us to reinforce this message when you see students – and by checking that your Moodle sites, unit schedules and even registers call it this.  I’m attaching a slide containing the Early Career Professional framework visuals so that you can use to give clear branding to Professional Development Week on your unit Moodle site. Cultural change is a long process, but with your help we’ll get there in the end!
