Faculty Training and Capacity Building

Professors are frequently focused on their subject matter of expertise and do not have the time to explore emerging educational techniques or the applicability of new educational technologies. UKS, as a strategic partner, can provide the necessary training in order to empower professors with the right techniques needed to use this technology. An integral part of the training also includes, capacity building, which is much more than training. Professors are equipped with the understanding, skills and access to information, knowledge and training that enables them to perform effectively.

• Faculty training and on-the-job guidance on adoption and implementation of new educational models.

• Hands-on workshops on the use of new educational methodologies and technologies such as Wikis / Podcasting / Blogging / Virtual Reality.

• Course redesign workshops.

• Workshops on effective content development.

• Organizational development, the elaboration of management structures, processes and procedures, not only within the organization but also the management of relationships between the different organizations and sectors.
