It is open to anyone with an interest in enhancing taught postgraduate employability provision in their institution. We would also like to encourage taught postgraduates to attend.
Details of the programme are still being finalised, but there will be a focus on sharing practice to enhance taught postgraduate provision, including institutional case studies and opportunities to discuss issues relating to taught postgraduate employability with colleagues from other institutions.

These materials concern a protest in Bagua, Peru on 5 June 2009 against a free trade agreement with the USA. According to official sources, 34 people (10 civilians and 24 police) lost their lives during an attempt by 600 Peruvian soldiers and riot-police to remove an indigenous blockade of the Belaunde Terry Highway at Devil's Curve in the northern Peruvian Amazon. They are based on an article published in Social Movement Studies: Hughes, N (2010) Indigenous Protest in Peru: the 'Orchard Dog Bites Back' Vol 9, No1, pp85-90, January. The materials are an example of how easy-to-use and cheap technologies can be used by lecturers to address the nexus between teaching, research and technology.
