College Employer Satisfaction League Table
COLLEGE EMPLOYER SATISFACTION LEAGUE TABLE The figures on this table are taken from the FE Choices employer satisfaction survey taken between 2016 and 2017, published on October 13. The government says “the scores calculated for each college or training organisation enable comparisons about their performance to be made against other colleges and training organisations of the same organisation type”.

It is particularly gratifying to find a new way to represent the Durham experience. Since I joined the University two and a half years ago, I have been amazed by how multi-faceted it all is. I therefore hope that the new version of this magazine is able to reflect that richness in the same way that Durham First did for so many years. In fact, in order to continue to offer exceptional communication, we have updated your alumni magazine, your website - www.dunelm.org.uk - and your various social media pages. -
MOUTHPIECE the Unofficial Voice of SHTC
MOUTHPIECE The unofficial voice of SHTC Our own sweet gain... JACQUES O’SULLIVAN!! If the School of Hospitality, Tourism & Culture (SHTC) started collecting advertising fees, then Coke would be the FIRST Corporation to contribute - all thanks to Jacques O’Sullivan! If you are curious about the connection between ‘Jacques’ and ‘O’Sullivan’ (how often do you come across a French and an Irish name together), we’d like to solve the mystery, he was born in Montreal and so the French name ‘Jacques’. Jacques first started teaching at Centennial College in 1986 and became a Full-time Professor in 1988. Few people know that his broth- er Sean O’Sullivan was Canada’s youngest Member of Parliament (MP). The name O’Sullivan still carries tremendous weight after all these years. After Sean quit politics, many political parties approached Jacques to represent his constituency in Parliament. Centennial College gained big time (one of his favourite expressions) when Jacques chose a career in academics instead of politics. In addition to managing a full teaching load, Jacques has always dedicated his time and efforts towards student success and student satisfaction. In fact, he took this on so seriously early on in his teaching career that first thing every Monday morning, Jacques and fellow faculty Diarmuid O’Connor would meet with Gary Robinson (Ex-Chair) to discuss issues relating to life within and outside of the classroom. So much so, they became extremely dedicated to these meetings and started team teaching. Classes were split up into ‘dyads and triads’, and this technique of teaching was extremely successful. -

Research Board Minutes
Research Board Minutes Date: January 27, 2021 Time: 10:00 am – 12:00 pm Place: Google Meets Attendees: K. Atkinson, B. Chang, C. Davidson, A. Eamer, G. Edwards, S. Forrester, J. Freeman, L. Jacobs (Chair), M. Lemonde, S. Rahnamayan, L. Roy, V. Sharpe (secretary), A. Slane Guest(s): Regrets: 1. Approval of the agenda Approved by consensus. 2. Approval of previous meeting’s minutes Approved by consensus. 3. Report of the Vice President Research & Innovation Canada Research Chairs - L. Jacobs shared that both our CRC applications have been approved. He thanked Laura Rendl, Jenn Freeman and the Dean’s offices in FBIT and FEAS as well as individual faculty members for the immense work that went into the applications. There is currently an embargo on releasing the names of the CRCs but we are able to share internally that the FEAS Tier 1 is starting May 1 and the FBIT Tier 2 is starting on June 1. Many people have made significant moves to get them involved in the university research enterprise already. The Tier 1 is already integrated into a number of diverse initiatives including our partnership with the University of Miami. We have plans to get the Tier 2 involved in a number of projects such as project arrow and cybersecurity initiatives. It would be ideal to have them ready to hit the ground running when they start at the university. ACTION: If you have ideas about where they might fit in with your research or your faculty’s research reach out to L. Jacobs and he can connect you. -
