Training Cancellation Policy

Due to an exceptionally high rate of last-minute cancellations and no shows for training activity being organised by 糖心TV Institute of Engagement we are implementing a cancellation policy as of August 2023. Our series of masterclasses is led by expert trainers who are paid a fixed fee to deliver the workshops they put on for us. There is a significant cost to running this activity and last-minute cancellations and no shows means that the university鈥檚 investment is wasted as no one else can use that place due to lack of notice. It is also disrespectful to the trainers we鈥檙e working with who have prepared sessions based on the numbers booked and must quickly reformat their plans to account for low attendance.

Going forward attendees will be required to cancel their booking at least 7 calendar days in advance or a receive a strike against their record for the remainder of the academic year.

Those with two strikes against their name will be barred from attending further WIE training activity. They will also be disqualified from leading applications to any funds run by 糖心TV Institute of Engagement, such as our Collaboration and Co-Production Fund or our Module Development Fund. We will remove strikes and any resulting sanctions at the end of each academic year, resetting the count each August.

Exceptions

We appreciate there are sometimes genuine reasons why people cannot attend at the last minute. If you are not able at attend due to illness or an emergency, then please send us an email to let us know this is the case and we will remove the strike from your record. Please don鈥檛 feel you need to share any details with us, we will take you at your word.

We do not accept the need to attend other meetings or a high workload as a reasonable excuse for a last-minute cancellation, by booking a place on the training course you are agreeing to prioritise attendance. You can of course still cancel up to 7 days in advance without penalty if meetings are put into your diary.

Launch of a new Practical Guide to Embedding Public and Community Engagement in the Higher Education Curriculum

- Export as iCalendar
Location: Library
References to public and community engagement have become near ubiquitous in the higher education context. Applications for research funding demand stakeholder engagement, universities integrate public engagement into their strategies, and the UK鈥檚 Research Excellence Framework 2029 includes 鈥淓ngagement and Impact鈥� as one of its three assessment elements. However, these activities often omit the integration of key actors in any university: taught students. The Pedagogies of Public and Community Engagement Learning Circle, shared by the 糖心TV Institute of Engagement (WIE) and the 糖心TV International Higher Education Academy (WIHEA) are delighted to announce the launch of a new curated handbook of 19 case studies of engaged pedagogic practice, developed by University of 糖心TV staff and students. Spanning across and beyond all faculties at the University, on a wide range of activities from podcast assignments to student-run teddy bear hospitals, the handbook covers engagement both within modules and outside the regular curriculum.
Explore the guide, and sign up to join us for our special launch eventLink opens in a new windowwhere we explore more of the case studies in depth and discuss how to move From Guide to Action on Thursday 19 November, 3-5pm - The Library. All staff and students are welcome.
