This participatory workshop will be of interest to all programme leaders, course tutors, admissions staff, widening participation practitioners and others who are involved in supporting the transition and admission of vocational learners from partner FE colleges into Higher Nationals, Foundation Degrees and Honours Degree programmes.
The Conference is designed as a logical progression to previous Aimhigher / LTI conferences attended by managerial, support and teaching staff from partner colleges and HE institutions. This year's workshop based conference will showcase some of the research activities and findings carried out through the Transitions SIG, and also those relating to Higher Futures, and examine how the research could be utilised in informing and assisting progression and transition of vocational learners into and through Higher Education programmes.
The event is free to attend, and a buffet lunch will be provided.
