Championing Mature Students
This one-day event is a chance for institutions and their students unions to meet together with mature students and work through the challenges that face the mature student population.
The event is held at a time when concerns are being raised over the sudden fall in mature and part-time applicants at university. The NUS feel it imperative that unions and institutions work in partnership to discuss the issues and find solutions to support and expand lifelong learning.
The day will consist of a mixture of panel discussions, workshops and presentations of research to facilitate active participation from delegates. We expect it to be an enjoyable and informative day for all attending.
