Education and Training Group

Collectively the Schools within the College provide a holistic education experience that challenges students to learn, enquire, create, reason and innovate so they can gain knowledge and attitudes to be personally successful, be life-long learners and shape local and global society.

The college Education and Training Group is concerned with driving teaching and learning activites across the college and identifying synergies. The CHAS ETG is chaired by CHAS VP for Teaching and Learning, Associate Professor Jonathan McNulty, and membership consists of Associate Deans for Teaching and Learning across the College. In its Vision, Mission and Strategic Objectives document, the college highlights four overarching actions in its Education and Training remit. 

  • Foster excellence and be recognised internationally for scholarship across all disciplines
  • Drive developments in teaching, learning and assessment methods with due consideration to issues of access, equality, diversity and inclusion and student wellbeing
  • Prepare competent graduates who contribute to society and their professions
  • Foster student engagement and an outstanding student experience
