A workplace contract means that we will deliver our MA Education programme to a group of between 15 and 20 staff at your chosen venue. It enables you to tailor the focus of your programme of study directly to the needs of your organisation and your development priorities. Staff develop knowledge and skills that can be directly applied to their job role, enhancing their professional practice and creating a positive impact on teaching and student learning. Using our MA Education programme structure as an overarching framework we will work in partnership with your organisation to develop content that meets your specific needs and objectives, creating a programme that aims to deliver both immediate and sustained impact. Our wide range of modules mean you can select the subject areas that your organisation wishes to focus on. Learners will benefit personally and professionally, whilst also gaining a valuable postgraduate award. You may be looking to: enrich student engagement, improve achievement levels, develop creative approaches to teaching and learning activities, increase staff collaboration, improve leadership skills and support succession planning. Learners will qualify with either an MA Education, or in one of the following specialist pathways: MA Education: Early Childhood.

Your bespoke programme is delivered through a contract between your institution and the College of Education which facilitates the programme on your site or at the University.
