The Service Learning Division at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently held a staff enrichment session in the Senate Hall on the Qwaqwa Campus of the UFS. Staff members who are involved in Service Learning, or interested to learn more about it had an opportunity to share their experiences and ideas. The workshop presented an opportunity for the discovery of an academic niche through participants who demonstrated fervour in the initiation and development of more new Service Learning modules. The introduction of two separate skills enhancement programmes, HES717 and HES/FES522 endorsed prospects of a successful future for Service Learning and Community Engagement at the Qwaqwa Campus.
