Description
Our second meeting of sparqs’ National Education Officers’ Network (NEON) for 2025-26 took place online on Wednesday 17th December, 10.30am-12.15pm.
The National Education Officers’ Network is designed to be a space for student officers with education remits from colleges and universities across Scotland, to receive additional training and development opportunities, including networking and discussing issues together in a cross-institutional capacity.
This development opportunity had a particular focus on Scotland’s Tertiary Enhancement Programme (STEP) within the Tertiary Quality Enhancement Framework (TQEF).
