Description
This first Academic Representation Co-ordinators’ network meeting included a range of participative sessions – both to inform about key issues relating to academic representation, and to consult on developments in sparqs’ work.
Topics included postgraduate Course Rep Training, apprentice and school pupil engagement in colleges, and discussions on the latest developments in quality frameworks in both sectors. There was also a chance to shape the other two network meetings scheduled for later this academic year.
The hashtag for the event, for use on Twitter was #sparqsARC
