Strategies for Internationalisation
Fiona Hunter
This course will address the question of why universities today need to develop a strategic approach to internationalisation. It will then propose a framework for the development and delivery of an international strategy that will consider analysis and review of current institutional directions, activities and effectiveness, clarification of expectations and challenges, mission, vision, values and priorities, development and implementation of activities. A model for developing a strategic plan for internationalisation will be proposed. Working through this process will enable the participants to reflect on their current practices and to consider how the model proposed might work in their own institutions.

2. Three days after the live session, based on the content and direction of the first live discussion, the expert would shape the questions he/she would pose in three forums. He/She would then give about a week for participants to add to forums from stimulating discussions, and replying when necessary.
3. Once forums close, a 2nd LIVE presentation would be scheduled so that the expert addresses main points from the forums and an open discussion will follow. This 2nd LIVE discussion takes place towards the end of the second week of training.
