Reviewing Computer Science

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I planned to review the new HND Computer Science. It’s not really a review. I plan to talk to a few people over the coming weeks about their opinions of the new award.

The recently completed HN Review updated four awards, and created one new one – the HND Computer Science. Some of you will remember that it was originally intended to be a generic HND in Computing but during the development and validation process became what it is now. Some people have commented that the title and the contents don’t quite match. So I plan to talk to few people (school teachers, college lecturers and university admissions among them) about this. I will do this over the next couple of months.

If you have any views on this don’t hesitate to let me know. I’d welcome e-mails or phone calls (or face to face discussions) about this.
