SANRC Capacity Building Workshops

The SANRC offers a programme of specialised consultation services for universities about the First-Year Experience, i.e., specialised expertise and guidance with regard to their First-Year Experience programmes, as well as other services and support systems for first-year students. The consultation services feature a host of services, such as planning, helping to write and cost proposals, making presentations to senior management to support proposals, and facilitating education and awareness- raising initiatives for university staff to learn more about First-Year Experience, etc.
