Dear Tammy
Please feel free to phone and discuss timetable issues.
In relation to consultation and involvement we have an EIA Panel system
which brings together staff and students from equality target groups on
a regular basis to assess the preliminary and full impact assessments
undertaken by assessors. This ensures their voices are heard and their
experience is taken account of. Am happy to give further information if
required and have attached the latest edition of the Portsmouth
Handbook.
Regards
Alex

We are in the process of putting together a timetable for impact
assessment at Kingston University. I was wondering if anyone would
share with me, on or offline, their experiences of timescales re
consultations or any other pitfalls that I could avoid or make
allowances for. I would appreciate the benefit of learning from
colleagues' experiences as we embark on this process.
We are going to use Marshall ACM's impact assessment training and
toolkit together with our own guide book. From what I can see it is
the
consultation and involvement which is likely to slow the process down
but I also wonder how we avoid targeting the same people within the
University when asking for feedback from equality groups.
Many thanks
Tammy
