SEDA One Day Event

Management and Staff Development within "Rewarding and Developing Staff
in Higher Education" (HEFCE 00/56)

National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham
24th April 2001


Conference host:        Professor Liz Beaty (Coventry University)
                         SEDA co-Chair

The purpose of the day is to give an opportunity to colleagues who are
developing human resource strategies in response to the HEFCE
Consultation Paper "Rewarding and Developing Staff in HE" to consider
some of the issues relating to management and staff development.

We will be considering the issues behind the "Rewarding and Developing
Staff " initiative, and applying some of the experience we have gained
from writing and implementing the Learning and Teaching Strategies. We
will be discussing management and leadership development for senior
staff and Heads of Departments in the context of educational development
and change. We will also be drawing on the experience of the management
development elements of SEDA's "Professional Development in Higher
Education" scheme.
