Webinar: Learning Points from the Short Course Trial

In this session from our 2024 Lifelong Learning Entitlement (LLE) and Short Courses Trial Conference, our panel of speakers discuss:

• What we learnt on student demand and the needs for short course success

• Reconfiguring course design with a new learning experience that supports a new, distinct product

• Building improved approaches to quality, evaluation and approval that break away from processes of a traditional degree programme

• Assessing how institutions developed short course programmes that met the requirements of a 30-credit minimum threshold

• Questions on credit transfer and the needs for a framework on building up credit across programmes

• The steps to ensure an impactful LLE system which works for providers, employers and students
