What's is the event? 

Transnational education in Practice

This training workshop is one of three online training sessions offered to providers in the UK TNE Quality Scheme. The training sessions are tailored to staff at different levels of experience and expertise. Each session is repeated later in the year.

The training sessions are participative and include opportunities to engage, share and discuss ideas and themes with participants from other providers. 

What makes TNE effective? TNE involves multiple people working in different locations, institutions and teams yet each arrangement is in many ways unique so there is no one solution. There are so many considerations: understanding what your institution wants from TNE, finding the right partner, navigating the regulatory landscape, understanding the local context, building mutual trust and understanding and connecting with students. 

TNE in Practice training focuses on what makes partnership work in the real world. It focuses on areas to support staff in their TNE work, whatever the role.

What's on the agenda?

TNE in Practice training can focus on a number of areas. 

  • Due diligence and risk management
  • Setting up partnerships
  • Managing partnerships
  • Monitoring, reviewing and developing partnerships
  • Exiting partnerships
  • TNE models
  • Governance
