As part of our support package for Officers this year, we have signed up to the WonkHE SU Subscription programme. This offers Officers and Staff access to the wide variety of briefings, training and resources that WonkHE have on Higher Education. The Officers have already started to benefit from this by attending some really thought provoking and accessible webinars over the last few weeks.

There is no limit on our access to the programme and so if you would like access, please follow the steps below;

1. Visit - the WonkHE site
2. Click ‘Add New User’ on the ‘SUs+’ Menu – Complete the form
3. Wait for your confirmation email and then log into the site.

In particular there are some very good sessions in the webinars focussing on particular issues which may affect how you represent specific students, on race equality and attainment, on disabled students and on other relevant groups.
