Higher Education Student and Professional Services

We've moved permanently!

The Higher Education Training and Development Unit which was part of the University Teaching and Learning Portfolio has been reconfigured and effective January 1, 2018, its staff has been integrated in the School of Education in the Cluster of Education and Development Studies.

The Masters programme in Student and Professional Services is aimed at Higher Education practitioners who are interested in holistic student development, and in the broader experiences of students both in but especially out of class. This may be of particular interest to professional administrators and student affairs practitioners, but is also vital for academic staff.

4 core modules:

Research Discourses and Methodology (16 C)
