    Student development in the University of Cape Town residences : a training needs analysis of house commitees
    (2007) Davids-January, Charmaine; Gilmour, David
    This study conducts a training needs analysis in the area of student development at the University of Cape Town. Areas of student development are currently under research in South Africa. The field has its early roots in higher education at the turn of the twentieth century when United States (US) colleges professionalised the field of student affairs so as to focus on whole student development. The University of Cape Town (UCT) formally introduced student development in residences in 1998 with the intention of designing a range of interventions that would respond to the changing student profile as well as the socio-political climate, which focused on personal and institutional transformation.
