Post-Roadshow Report Card - Paisley Reid Kerr

Labels:



Nikon cameras in foreground, students in background.


Glasgow again today, (well, Paisley) this time visiting Reid Kerr in a shiny new building, and a definite improvement over last year's facilities. A very good reception and a very good crack at the assignment meant this was another impressive performance all round.

  • Student Turnout - 8/10. Good numbers, and pretty keen looking too.
  • Number of questions asked - 4/10. Still only a couple, and mostly technical in nature.
  • Quality of Tea and Cakes - 9/10. Aided and abbetted by a birthday cake.
  • Number of Lecturers who also had 40th Birthday's that day - 1/1. Happy Birthday Gerry.
  • Ability to handle the assignment - 8/10. Superb pics, but let down slightly by their paperwork in a few places.
  • Ability of Tom to break the audio-visual equipment before he's even started using it - 9/10. Wait for the AV technician next time Tom, there's a good chap.
A little break now, until we visit Aberdeen next Tuesday. Meanwhile I shall return to my day job as a photographer! Read more on "Post-Roadshow Report Card - Paisley Reid Kerr"!

Post-Roadshow Report Card - Glasgow Metropolitan

The View from the front at Glasgow Met


Finally, after months of planning and preparation, the day dawns, and the roadshow begins. On a rainy Tuesday morning in Glasgow, myself, Nikon David and Calumet Duncan, with a strong sense of Deja Vu, headed down to Glasgow Met to kick things off. Here's the college's report card:

  • Student Turnout - 8/10. Lots of happy, keen people on a rainy morning
  • Number of Questions asked - 2/10. Only the one question asked, so no major points there
  • Quality of Tea and Cakes - 9/10. Very fine indeed. Particularly the Carrot Cake.
  • Getting around the Building - 1/10. Get those lifts fixed.
  • Ability to handle the assignment - 9/10. A frankly awesome opening to the season. Superb results, and very good consideration of the business side too.
  • Ability of the college to bail us out with natty plastic bags when the Nikon ones failed to arrive - 10/10. Cheers for that guys, we would have looked quite daft handing over piles of brochures to people and asking them to hold them all together.
So, a good start then. Reid Kerr in the morning, and it looks like Glasgow Met have set the bar quite high. Read more on "Post-Roadshow Report Card - Glasgow Metropolitan"!
