ABSTRACT
This paper explores the contexts, origins, nature and evaluation of a modular “Quality in FE” staff development programme, collaboratively designed by two LEA evaluation teams and a university department of education and “delivered” by the latter. Emphasis is placed on the accreditation/progression features of the programme; and its evaluation is reported. An embryonic “in‐house consultancy” model is identified and its aptness to the current conjuncture, especially following the 1991 FE White Papers, is suggested.
