You can keep in touch with the whole network by signing up to SESN JISCMail list. 

SESN is a great way to keep in touch with colleagues working in similar roles in other Scottish institutions and students’ associations, and also to discuss latest updates from the sector, so make sure to sign up and add it to your calendar! See the October event page for the agenda and materials from the previous meeting.

We would like to get your thoughts on what you would to learn/discuss/explore this year. Please complete this short questionnaire to tell us your ideas.  

We are also keen to learn more about what practices you implement in your role and institution, so if you would like to share examples of student engagement activities, best practice, or suggest other topics for SESN meetings, please let us know by emailing Amy at amy.monks@sparqs.ac.uk.
