These are face-to-face sessions conducted by the Deans / Heads of Programme from the respective Schools in which you have been deployed to teach. They can be in the form of briefing / debrief sessions, course-specific training or role-specific training such as for examination markers and course developers.
The purpose varies with the nature of the session:
- Welcome and orientate new Associates for teaching in SUSS
- Gather feedback on students, and course content and delivery from Associates
- Highlight changes in course content where the course is revamped
- Brief associates on important aspects of their roles and sharing of recommended practices
These sessions are conducted year-round. Representatives from the respective Schools will contact you regarding the nature and details of the school training sessions (varies according to Schools). Attendance taken during the session, and/or successful passing of the relevant quizzes, will represent completion of this mandatory training.
Note: Graduate programme deployments do not need to undergo School Specific Training.
