Creating Value with ESG

This Micro-Cred explores various research approaches, with an emphasis on qualitative methods, and their integration into the design process to create opportunities for creative design solutions.The course material will be enabled through a series of workshops where a problem-based learning approach is applied to develop the skills being taught. Case studies and key examples of the use of these approaches for research and design will be used as material to enhance learning through practice, dialogue and reflection. The syllabus will include a period of immersion where students will carry out primary research in the environment of their research area. This will enable students to identify both problems and opportunities. The focus is to ask pointed questions that challenge the status quo. During this first-hand immersion period, students will collect multiple 'observations'. Through a process of synthesis and analyses these observations will be crafted into 'problem' and then 'need' statements. Through a process of filtering and categorisation of the needs this then forms the basis of the design guide. This is an iterative process, with progressive deeper dives into the needs that have the most potential for design and innovation solutions.

STRATEGIC PEOPLE MANAGEMENT

It's well recognised that excessive or sustained pressure can lead to stress. Occupational stress poses a risk to businesses and can result in higher sickness absence, lower staff engagement and reduced productivity. According to the HSE, 17.9 million working days were lost to stress, anxiety or depression in 2019/20. In 2021 the Chartered Institute of Personal and Development (CIPD) through their health and wellbeing at work survey report, showed that stress continues to be one of the main causes of short and long-term absence in the workplace. Overall, nearly four-fifths of respondents reported some stress-related absence in their organisation over the last year. Positively, more employers are recognising stress as an issue, and taking steps to tackle stress within their organisations.

To ensure students can achieve the highest standards of professionalism, this module will consolidate the academic and practical learning from other Public Procurement and Supply Chain Excellence modules together with an overview of the Public Procurement Reform Programme, into a practical application of the national public procurement policies and procedures using the key support structures and ICT toolsets for practitioners.Public procurement is facing new challenges especially in response to the Covid-19 pandemic.
