Higher Education

The work of the JISC Regional Support Centre includes support for HE within FE and HE colleges.

The HE support remit has been set out as follows:

• Develop effective contact with those responsible for HE in FE colleges in the region
• Scope and support the needs of small HEIs in the region, working with technical, library, learning and teaching and senior management staff, possibly via cross-regional activity or by building communities of practice
• Build and maintain a network of RSC HE contacts, enabling greater access to relevant RSC activities and services
• Mount at least one major HE-focused regional event per year

Ali-Marie Ladwa is the e-Learning Advisor with responsibility for this sector. She is currently on maternity leave and Deborah Judah has taken over her role in the meantime.

Deborah can be contacted at support@rsc-yh.ac.uk and welcomes input in ensuring all areas of this remit are covered appropriately.

The JISC RSC YH e-Learning in HE conference 2009 took place on Wednesday 11th March 2009.

This year the focus was on strategy and practice.
