RESEARCH ON UNITAR POCI

The United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) Peacekeeping Operations Correspondence Instruction (POCI) and th University of South Africa and Central University of Technology, Free State (CUT) started to collaborate with the South African National Defence College of Educational Technology (COLET) with a view to accredit modules under the South African Quality Authority (SAQA) within the National Quality Framework (NQF). The above poster was presented at the South African Association for Research in Higher Education (SAARDHE) at their Durban annual conference in 2003. Although one of the researchers, Dr Pierre Juan De Montfort, prepared all the UNITAR POCI modules according to the SAQA format, the SANDF has not indicated as yet their specific needs for this additional instruction.
