Dear Chris -
thanks for your comments and I do take your point. However, in the Faculty
of Continuing Education at Birkbeck I am the academic responsible for the
lifelong learning programme, including the Certificate in Teaching. Both the
generic certificate and the FE and HE pathways are led and mainly taught be
permanent academic staff.
However, the course is now to be offered in-house to Birkbeck lecturers, and
I think a greater diversity of people including from outside of Birkbeck can
only strengthen the course. I am keen to bring diversity and specialisms into
the programme that can best be done through having additional (and
necessarily) sessional lecturers to participate in the programme.
If anyone has any queries about what this might mean, please do get in touch.
I can be reached at Birkbeck, where I am Programme Director for Lifelong
Learning, at [log in to unmask] or on 020 7631 6625.
Best wishes
Sue
