Welcome to AMOSSHE

AMOSSHE is the UK Student Services Organisation.   We inform and support the leaders of student services, and represent, advocate for, and promote the student experience.  Around 140 UK higher education institutions are members  of AMOSSHE.

AMOSSHE promotes the development and sharing of good practice within student services in the HE sector at a national level.  We hold several training events throughout the year, an annual conference, provide policy briefings for members, and facilitate regional and special interest discussions.  We work closely with influential sector groups and policy makers to promote and represent our member interests.

We have been awarded funding from the HEFCE LGM panel for a project exploring the value and impact of services that support students.  The value and impact project runs from April 2010 to July 2011.  The project will develop a toolkit for student services departments to improve their information, management practice, and the overall student experience.

AMOSSHE is also delighted to announce that the Times Higher Education Leadership and Management Awards have introduced a category in 2010 for ‘Outstanding Student Support team’.  AMOSSHE lobbied for this award to be established, and the AMOSSHE chair is a member of the judging panel.
