On Reflection #23: Editorial by David Pierce

In the UK, HEI Employability and Skills Awards have developed rapidly in recent years. AGCAS research1 (2011) shows that the majority of Awards have been developed within the last five years, with the vast proportion of these in the last one-two years. Approximately two thirds of institutions are running or planning to develop their own Award, and over half of those that responded to the survey stated that they would be utilising their Award within the development of the HEAR.

Monitoring Continuing Professional Development (CPD) - an ICE perspective

Continuing professional development (CPD) gets a mixed reaction. Some people love it. As one person told us, CPD ‘means learning something different every day...feeling more alive.’ It cements their professional status. Others are more hesitant. ‘I groan slightly. I think the objectives behind it are right but its operationalisation sometimes can be off-putting.’ Another person asked herself, ‘Is this the “real deal” or another con designed for self-aggrandisement and/or money-making?’
