- Tuesday 15th July 2008 (Robin Laidlaw)

This seminar will offer college managers a “no-commitment” opportunity to hear about the advantages, processes and requirements involved in gaining BAC accreditation or preparing for an inspection.

Specific areas will include:

  • Introduction to BAC
  • Implications of the new student visa system
  • Legal requirements
  • Qualifications and awards
  • BAC’s minimum requirements
  • The inspection process
  • Advice on good practice
  • Making the most of being accredited

There will be ample time for questions and discussion.
