Chris Powis, Deputy Director (Academic Services), University of Northampton

Gwyneth Price, Student Services Librarian, Institute of Education; Fellow of the Centre for Distance Education, University of London
This session will explore issues specifically related to working with doctoral students and their supervisors and include discussion of strategies for raising awareness with academics and administrative staff at the course development stage as well as practical ideas for working with international and part-time learners.
