Free webinar: Improving your institution's reputational profile
MENA webinar: 26 October 2023
Advance HE are delivering a series of webinars for our partners to provide insights and guidance with a key strategic challenge and opportunity: improving their reputational profile.
For a higher education institution (HEI), a good reputation, real or perceived, can enable it to gain a competitive advantage both domestically and internationally. Institutions are frequently differentiated based on their overall reputation but, often, by their specific strengths and specialisms. Institutional reputational profile can be based on a number of criteria such as academic reputation, student satisfaction and location.
During the webinar series, we will hear from those who have achieved recent success with improving their reputational profile, including through but not limited to, the Times Higher Education and QS World Rankings. We will provide you with free useful tools and resources, as well as ways in which you can engage with Advance HE.
Professor Ghassan Aouad, Chancellor, Abu Dhabi University, will be the guest speaker at the webinar on 26 October 2023.

Project Success Stories
It’s really important to ensure that we continuously develop and enhance teaching. Fellowship is a great way to embed that dynamic approach because it requires staff to constantly reflect on their teaching and to keep looking for
ways to develop it.”JACQUI GEORGE
