Business and Community Engagement
Whilst BCE activities create opportunities for colleges and universities, they also give rise to legal issues - this includes matters of intellectual property law (in particular, copyright), e-commerce law, data protection law, freedom of information duties and disability discrimination law.
The webcast was directed at UK further and higher education staff working in areas related to Business and Community Engagement (BCE), such as knowledge transfer, work based learning, community links, outreach, CPD, employer engagement, wider participation, and lifelong learning.
The aim of the webcast was to raise awareness of the legal aspects of Business and Community Engagement activities and to show how JISC Legal can assist colleges and universities with these issues.
