New Programme Approval

Hannah has headed up the development of three new programmes which have been approved for development.

With new programme approach there involves a great deal of research and liaising with experts in the field.

This is to ensure that the new programme fits in with the Higher Education Institute’s existing portfolio and adds value to potential learners by identifying and researching a viable gap in the market.

The process involves completing a range of documentation according to the Higher Education Institute’s requirements. This generally includes a programme specification and rationale and a design narrative. For each of the modules which form part of the programme there is a module specification required alongside a reading list, which involves consulting with the library.

The Process

There is a requirement for student focused contents to provide to the marketing team.

The approval process involves several stages, both internally and then with the involvement of external members.  This scrutiny is essential to provide a robust process and to ensure courses approved fill a market need.

Throughout the process there is a need to be receptive to feedback which can be prior to events (generally given at short notice) and during an event.  There is a requirement to present and discuss the programme to a panel who will provide feedback and deliberate on the outcome.  The outcome will involve some mandatory conditions, some considerations and in the most recent panel Hannah presented to, four commendations.

This involved researching and putting together the business case and presenting them at the approval event and responding to feedback and making the necessary amendments for final sign off.

Programmes which Hannah has led on and have received approval include:

An MSc in Digital Marketing
An MSc in International Entrepreneurship and Innovation
BA Hons Top Up Degree in Management and Leadership
