WAYS colleges in Scotland are adapting to challenges like the post-Covid world, cost-of-living crisis and rise of artificial intelligence will be discussed at a roadshow event in Inverness later this week.
These will be among the central themes when UHI Inverness plays host to the final College Expo Roadshow on Thursday (May 25).
It will bring together senior college leaders and experts in a panel to look at these various issues and how they are influencing the structure and delivery of students’ learning experiences.
Organised by College Development Network (CDN), this is Scotland’s landmark event for everyone involved in post-16 education and training as well as secondary school teachers.
The free-to-attend event will also explore curriculum design within the context of the rising influence of AI.
Chris O’Neil, Principal and Chief Executive of UHI Inverness, said: “We are delighted to be hosting a College Expo 23 face-to-face panel discussion and we’re looking forward to welcoming colleagues from the college network to our campus.
"This event will be a great opportunity for us to reflect on the curriculum and to engage in productive discussions about how we can best prepare our students for their future careers.
"By bringing together experts in college education we can learn from each other’s experiences and gain valuable insight into best practice.”
The Expo Roadshow event follows on from the first at Borders College in Galashiels in March, which saw experts discuss ‘student experience’ with a focus on student mental health, and the second event at the Forth Valley College's Falkirk Campus which saw experts discuss the most effective professional learning methods.
