Key Contacts


The Business, Management, Accountancy and Finance Network has Key Contacts in institutions throughout the UK.

 

An institution's 'Key Contact' is the primary link between the Subject Centre and the Business school or relevant department.

 

Each Key Contact has some responsibility for Learning and Teaching within their school or department and has agreed to be the nominated contact.

What do Key Contacts do for the Subject Centre?

 

The Key Contacts are important because they:

  • Distribute information on the Subject Centre to colleagues, old and new, and to part-time staff who may not hear about us through the usual channels.
  • Facilitate Subject Centre-sponsored workshops held in their own institution.
  • Identify local experts/potential contributors to Subject Centre events or publications. Highlight local issues of concern which could be topics for us to address .
  • Provide feedback on local thinking about current national issues.

What does the Subject Centre do for Key Contacts?

  • Being identified nationally as Business, Management, Accountancy and Finance Subject Centre Key Contact confers some status on the individual.
  • Interaction with the network contributes to the professional development of the academic involved.
  • The Subject Centre organises regional meetings for Key Contacts twice a year, for sharing experiences and discussing current issues.
  • The Centre provides a reception for Key Contacts at its annual conference - an opportunity to meet Key Contacts from elsewhere.

To find out more about the Subject Centre and how you can get involved as a Key Contact, or if you would like to know who your local key contact is, please email us.

Key Contact Symposia are organised every year in different parts of the UK. (In 2009 there was only one.)
