Membership Benefits 2023-24
Advance HE membership supports institutional and individual success. Explore the other benefits of membership.
Advance HE organised inspiring talks that have given me new ways of thinking. Its panelists have made me question my beliefs and I feel that I have a much richer and deeper understanding of the topics that were presented within higher education. Highly recommended!"Feedback from an event attendee in 2023
Member Projects
Fit for the future: Innovative models of HE
The combined impact of the cost-of-living crisis and post-pandemic changes in student behaviour and expectations is necessitating institutions to consider the nature and structure of HE they provide.
This member benefit aims to help members adapt to rapidly evolving markets and novel environmental shocks by exploring innovative and unconventional approaches to how higher education is structured and provided.
Exploring ways to incorporate emerging technologies, interdisciplinary collaboration and experiential learning into higher education create a more inclusive, accessible, and impactful education system.

Generative AI: Beyond Assessment
Large Language Models and other forms of AI are influencing ways of working and will revolutionise how we approach research, collaboration, teaching and learning. There is a recognised need for a considered, less polarised exploration of the issues and opportunities AI presents for regulators, institutions, staff and students alike.
This member benefit takes us beyond current debates on AI and assessment to consider in-depth other ways the technology will impact higher education and the communities we serve.

Creating a culture for Strategic EDI Change
Leading and achieving meaningful transformation and lasting change in inclusivity requires a multifaceted approach involving a deep understanding of the organisation’s culture, its values, and its stakeholders.
Developing institutional confidence and cultural competence to achieve success is a significant undertaking and requires a shared commitment and leadership from across communities.
This member benefit looks at creating and implementing a clear vision and mission for real change.

Growing the HE workforce of the future
Looking to the future of the higher education sector, it is vital to consider the workforce that will drive its success.
This requires a strategic approach to ensure institutions can identify, recruit, develop and retain the necessary talent in their academic, professional and ‘third space’ communities.
This project provides insight into emerging trends, understanding potential new roles, the people development required, and the impact on promotion and recognition structures.

Other projects
