As a busy Student Services leader you’ll have developed a wealth of experience and expertise throughout your career. But the UK Student Services sector doesn’t have a formal framework for you to record and document what you know. So you may want to consider other ways to consolidate or document your expertise in a sector-recognised format. This can be useful if you’re looking to advance in your career or argue for more pay or status.
Aside from your expertise in Student Services, you are a leader and manager. It’s important to develop and refresh your skills and approaches to ensure you’re strategic and impactful, and you’re getting the best from your teams and supporting them with what they need.
