The Mancunian quintet

Abstract

The Greater Manchester Consortium for Advanced Continuing Education and Training (CONTACT) — a partnership of Manchester and Salford Universities, Manchester Polytechnic, UMISTand Manchester Business School — has recently introduced a novel Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Award, which aims to help in meeting the national need for the continuous updating of the knowledge and skills of individuals in industry, commerce and the public sector. The Award is based on the wide range of post‐experience short courses offered by these five institutions, and is obtained by accumulating credit from a series of courses attended at any of them. A certificate is issued when 120 contact hours have been successfully completed and details the courses accredited.
