FELS Bachelor of Education Degree Attains UCJ Accreditation
T
he Faculty of Education and Liberal Studies has attained accreditation
for the Bachelor of Education degree course of study. The grant of
accreditation would have a positive impact on the graduates of the
programme, and should redound to the credit of the Faculty as a whole.
The process towards accreditation was led by Dean, Dr. Rohan Lewis; Dr
Sylvia Hall, Lecturer, FELS prepared the self-study. Dr Winsome Russell,
AVP, Academic Management and the team in the Office of Curriculum
Development and Evaluation(OCDE) worked tirelessly on this application
along with members of the Faculty’s team who spent long hours in the
effort to satisfy the requirements of the University Council of Jamaica (UCJ).
