We are pleased to introduce the Advance HE Member Benefits for 2026 to 2027. Our membership offer has been refreshed to reflect the changing needs of higher education and research institutions.
Since August 2025, we have engaged extensively with our global membership through roundtables, institutional visits and advisory groups. This engagement has helped us understand your priorities and shape an offer that responds directly to the challenges you face.
Our aim is to work alongside you as a trusted partner. We provide expertise, evidence and peer connection to support confident and effective change across your institution.
Supporting you to navigate complex challenges
Higher education is operating in a period of both pressure and opportunity. Institutions are responding to:
- Financial constraints
- Workforce transformation
- Changing student expectations
- Rapid advances in artificial intelligence
- Global and geopolitical uncertainty
Our membership is designed to build capability at every level. It supports your people to respond to complexity with clarity, confidence and purpose.
Four strategic priorities
Our 2026 to 2027 Member Benefits focus on four strategic priorities identified by our members. These are not isolated. They are interconnected and demand coordinated, institution-wide responses.
Each priority area offers practical support, insight and opportunities for collaboration.
Leading workforce and organisational transformation
Institutions are implementing structural change, developing new partnerships and evolving operating models. Our support helps you balance transformation with academic purpose, capability development and staff engagement.
Delivering education for a different student and society
Student populations, expectations and pathways have changed significantly. We support you to design and deliver inclusive, high-quality education that meets the needs of a diverse and evolving society.
Operating in the AI enabled institution
Artificial intelligence is reshaping assessment, curriculum design and workforce roles. Our offer helps you respond strategically, responsibly and with confidence.
Governing and assuring the modern institution
Expectations of governance are evolving. Institutions must demonstrate accountability, effectiveness and financial sustainability. We support your leaders to strengthen governance and assurance in a complex environment.
Built around what matters most to you
This year’s member benefits are grounded in what members have told us matters most. The priorities we address are complex and overlapping and require strong leadership and a shared institutional response.
Our member benefits provide:
- Practical and accessible solutions
- Flexible and scalable support
- Insight grounded in evidence and sector practice
- Opportunities to connect with peers across the global community
Across the year, you will see clear examples of how membership strengthens leadership, enhances education and builds more inclusive communities.
Advance HE membership helps you turn intent into action. We support you to deliver meaningful and sustained change with confidence.
