Rail services
[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v2files/shard1/85313/e0/066dbb6351ef0d7218c8ff.jpg]With the current disruption to ScotRail services, many of you may face challenges in getting to and from work, particularly earlier and later in the day.
Anyone facing significant difficulties travelling to the campus should speak to their line manager to discuss their working arrangements.
If you're working in an agile way and splitting your days between home and campus, you may want to take advantage of Scotrail's Flexipass.
It lets you make 10 journeys on the same route within one month – saving 10% or more compared to buying single or return tickets.

Team-based Innovation
[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v2files/shard1/85313/ed/623b4a7a5e9dd91909c7f7.jpg]The best ideas come when people who work or interact with each other share their knowledge and insights and create solutions together.
When an issue needs tackled, a problem needs solved or an opportunity needs to be identified, those who face the issue on a day to day basis are often best placed to deliver solutions and ideas.
This course explores behaviours and structures which create the environment for supporting staff to innovate within their own teams.
