Subject: Re: [Addiction Course Convenors] Membership Criteria
Criteria for membership as sketched out below seems reasonable. It is
better to have a broad, inclusive approach such as this so that we can
all learn from each other. Sorry I was not able to attend. Has another
date been set?

Subject: Membership Criteria
And one more thing...
At the meeting in Brighton we had a brief discussion about list
membership criteria but there were so few of us that I thought it had
better come to the list membership for discussion. Based on our
discussion yesterday and a few thoughts I had since, I'm suggesting the
following criteria:
Members will be academics in HE who offer courses in drugs,
alcohol or the addictions generally
Members may also be those who provide external-examiner services
to such courses
Members may also be those who provide substantial lecture input
to such courses
Members will not normally include those who provide more
general/peripheral courses (eg. addiction counselling)
Members will not normally include course providers or convenors
from outside the UK.
If people can suggest further criteria or alter the existing
criteria, I would be most grateful. We also had a brief discussion
about establishing a website to market our courses and we could include
the criteria there. I'm happy to do a temporary one if people want to
test the water before committing pennies. The link below is to the
temporary website I set up for our Pathways to Recovery seminar series,
to give you an idea of what can be knocked up at fairly short notice:
