European First Year Experience 2017

 

Dear colleagues,

 

Conference registration is open for the European First Year Experience Conference 2017, due to take place from 28^th- 30^th June at Birmingham City University. We will be focussing on two important themes throughout the conference.

 

Student and Staff Partnerships

 

Our key focus sees the conference highlight the beneficial impact of Student and Staff Partnerships on the first year experience. We believe that the staff-student conversation is one of the best avenues for change and throughout the conference would want to create a vibrant climate in which staff and students engage in discussions about the future of the first year experience.

 

Learning Gain

 

Through Learning Gain we seek to focus upon the ‘distance travelled’ by students, educationally and professionally as they transition from school or college into university and through that first year experience.  We would want participants to engage with initiatives that demonstrate how measurement and evaluative methods can be used to demonstrate the impact of first year experience activities

 

FOR MORE INFORMATION AND TO REGISTER YOUR PLACE THEN PLEASE CLICK HERE

 

We look forward to seeing you in June.
