Abstract

The Faculty Learning Community (FLC) at Edinburgh Napier University is based on the Miami model developed by Milton D. Cox and seeks to explore the ways in which staff support each other throughout the institution. This formal, time-bound and selective learning community has provided participants drawn from both academic and professional services staff with professional development, networking experience, intellectual stimulation, confidence and community. This project discuss how our learning community was formed and our hopes for its development.
