Event description
Join us in this ‘design sprint’ to rapidly create a toolkit of resources to embed impact on the SDGs with an enterprising mindset. In addition to using these innovative resources in your own practice, the resources will become part of a QAA (Quality Assurance Agency) endorsed toolkit for national impact, for those involved in teaching business, management, and leadership programmes in the first instance. In this first design sprint, we are focusing on those involved in postgraduate and part-time provision – with an aim to encourage SDG impact beyond students’ employing organisations. From this sprint, we aim to build a community of practice for impact-driven educators across the UK.
Registrations close on the 5th October 2023 at 23:59 UK time.
Delegates can claim up to 5 CPD units for attending the workshop.

Who should attend?
This event will be particularly valuable for programme leaders, module leaders, research methods or consultancy module leaders and PRME coordinators looking to embed impact into their curriculum and engage in a community of practice.
Our initial target audience for this sprint are academic staff who are involved in the planning and teaching of postgraduate and part-time courses, looking to embed sustainability and the SDGs into their curriculum. This event falls into categories B2 and E3. B2 is focused on the development of teaching and innovation, in which this event aims to create a resource for innovating teaching practice in business, incorporating sustainability, impact and the SDGs into curricula. E3 is focused on guiding others into career networks, where this event will build a community of practice for those engaged across institutions and job levels which is focused on sustainability and social impact. More details in the BAM Framework.
