HESPA Showcasing Good Practice Week

11 August 2022      Monica Madeley, Projects and Engagement Officer

It is not long now until our very first HESPA “Showcasing Good Practice” week, which will be taking place 19 – 23 September 2022. We are currently putting the finishing touches to our lineup of colleagues who have volunteered to share their experiences and what has worked well for them.

The aim of this event is to provide a space for our members to share with each other the work they have done which they feel has been a particular success, and to celebrate and promote the hard work of planners in the HE sector. If you feel you and your colleagues have been working on something which others would enjoy hearing about, and learning from, then please do get in touch as we still have a few available slots during the week.

Thank you to those of you who have already volunteered, including our wonderful HESPA 2022 Award winners and several award nominees. The sessions which are currently open for booking are listed below – although there are more to come so watch out for future emails with more details.
