Thank you to colleagues who recently applied for the CEL funded pedagogic projects aligned to the CEL themes; the response was excellent and results will be shared very soon. However we are in the happy place of having enough funding left to support 6 additional colleagues to attend the upcoming HEA conference, the focus of Dawn Morley’s ‘Innovation, entrepreneurship and creativity’ brief. Should any colleague wish to make a late application, please contact Dawn directly at ‘dmorley@bournemouth.ac.uk’ to find out how to go about applying. We would be pleased to support a strong BU contingent in attending and bringing back innovative ideas that will enhance the student experience.
