Professional Programmes

Higher education is a complex kaleidoscope of organisations, networks and communities. There is a well established and growing collection of professional associations and our engagement with this community is extensive. The range of organisations we are working with include AHUA, AUA, UHR, UCISA, SCONUL, AURIL, AMOSSHE, BUFDG, ARMA, AUPO, JISC, EAUC, AGCAS and ARC. (See our Links)

The focus of engagement with these professional associations is wide-ranging and in some cases it has led to the development of very successful UK-wide leadership development programmes which stand alongside our other national programmes.
