New year - new projects

The team returned to work this morning. The Christmas party seems a distant memory.

There are a great deal of interesting projects coming up this year including:

• National Certificate review
• HNC/D Information Technology validation and launch
• introduction of library PDAs
• establishment of new Qualification Support Teams.

We're also developing a wide range of support materials for such courses as HNC/D Computing and HNC/D Multimedia.

Stow College is working on the second part of their Computer Games development - having recently validated an HNC Computer Games Development the centre is now developing the corresponding HND award.

Meanwhile we will continue to support the E-Learning suite of awards and promote the recently revised SVQs in Information Technology.

On a personal basis, I'm hoping that the new Scottish Education blog develops a regular readership during the coming year.
