Small SUs Lead and Change 2024 is an exciting one-day in person development event for staff and student representatives from college and small and specialist SUs.
We’re providing a space for student representatives/elected officers to develop themselves and create a network that will support you in the coming year.
We’re also excited to invite Learner Voice Practitioners and SU staff to give you time to explore how you can support student leaders in facilitating effective learner voice.
All delegates will have the opportunity to develop their leadership skills and their understanding of the key issues we face as a student movement.
Within a different learning groups, delegates will build trust and connections with each other, learn how to support one another, as well as utilise each other as their biggest resources. We want delegates to come away from the event feeling connected, confident and that they can go back into their roles and make effective and positive change.
Event format
The event will be delivered across two different streams, with content being run in a space for officers, with a separate space and content for staff. There will be opportunities within the event for these two groups to come together to collaborate and network.
This year, we're delighted to be joined by representatives from both GuildHE and the Association of Colleges. These industry experts will be delivering exclusive sessions exploring the role of their organisations and the support they can offer you. Beyond these sessions, these representatives will be available throughout the event to chat, answer any questions and share their expertise.
