COMPARe stands for Course Optimisation for Marketing, Portfolio Assessment and Review. It is a new set of research and consultant-supported review approaches that let HEIs dovetail their market assurance process with the established quality assurance processes to enable them to create courses and portfolios that are sustainable because they are both academically robust and responsive to external demand.

COMPARe will be profiled in three exciting free workshops that Opinionpanel and The Knowledge Partnership are co-hosting this June and July. Each workshop will run from 3pm to 5.30pm followed by refreshments and will be hosted at venues in Bristol, Manchester and London:-

• Bristol – Thursday 25th June 2009 - University of West of England

• Manchester – Wednesday 1st July 2009 – University of Manchester (Sackville Street)

• London – Thursday 2nd July 2009 – LSE (Central London)

The workshops are aimed at everyone involved in developing new courses or reviewing a portfolio of courses from a market and business perspective. The sessions will offer an outline of approaches and showcase a real life case study of how ‘Proposition Tester’ has helped with the development of a new postgraduate degree. This will be followed by questions and discussion.

Speakers Dave Roberts, The Knowledge Partnership Ben Marks & Kyla Steenhart, Opinionpanel Research
