This training plan is an outcome of the JISC-funded KAPTUR project (2011-13). It will be tested
with the four partner institutions: The Glasgow School of Art; Goldsmiths, University of London;
University for the Creative Arts; and University of the Arts London. Each member of the team will
contribute content based upon presentations and workshops already given during the course of the

published in the form of the KAPTUR toolkits for use and re-use by other institutions.
