NAMSS are thrilled to be hosting their fifth Student Engagement Conference; a one day event to share best practice, showcase ways to develop both enrichment and student voice within an organisation and, to network with practitioners and managers from across the UK.
After listening to feedback from previous delegates, and because we understand that talking to peers from across the country can be so valuable, we have adapted our programme to allow for longer ‘networking’ times this year.
We have also added a fantastic Question & Answer session to the programme. This is a great opportunity for you to ask sector experts questions and get some honest, practical answers.
Enrichment and student voice have never been more important to support the development of our students life skills and confidence. Personal Development and Behaviours & Attitudes can be directly impacted by student engagement and should be a key focus for all colleges.
The range of workshop and speakers makes this event relevant to both managers overseeing provision and, staff developing enrichment and student voice ‘on the ground’.
Workshops will show case best practice at operational and strategic level as well as profile organisations and initiatives that you can get involved in to support your programmes.
Here’s what delegates had to say about last year’s event:
“I’ve just newly joined NAMSS. The conference was great, really useful.”
“Keep running conferences like this one, as it allows us to keep being introduced to new ideas and concepts when it comes to enrichment, student voice and student engagement.”
“It was reassuring to hear that many colleagues face similar challenges in their colleges. The sessions provided a supportive environment to share these experiences and take away new ideas, and it was reassuring to feel that we are on the right path.”
Please take a look at the workshops before booking your tickets as you will need to select your chosen workshops as part of your booking.
