Description
From break-even analysis to assessing financial performance, this comprehensive range of tutorials on managing resources provides an extremely flexible package for tutors teaching management courses at Certificate and Diploma level. Part-time and short course tutors will find the pack particularly useful. "Managing Resources" takes the grind out of preparing teaching materials from scratch, leaving time to structure tutorials to suit the needs of different groups. It contains: 20 self-contained tutorial sessions each containing a selection of activities; session plans and outcomes, clearly mapped to the MCI units and elements; instructions and timings for delivering the activities; hand-outs, worksheets and case studies; OHT masters clearly relating to the notes and handouts; and guidance on evidence gathering and portfolio building. It has a robust but flexible structure allowing tutors to 'pick and mix'. It is written by management tutors, for management tutors. It can be used in conjunction with the "IM Certificate and Diploma" textbook series.
