This year CPHC are offering workshops on themes of interest to the
membership. The intention is to run each workshop several times, in
different parts of the country. If you are interested to host one,
please get in touch.

The first two workshops are “A Chair in 10 Years”, focussed on career
planning and networking for early-career colleagues, and “North of 300:
Dealing with Significant Growth”, focussed on sharing approaches and
practices in response to greatly increased student numbers.

There is a cost-covering charge of £50 per head.

Further details may be found here – please pass these on to appropriate
colleagues.

For ‘A Chair in 10 Years’ at the University of Sheffield on Thursday 13 December 2018, please book here.
