Presentation
This session explores how higher education providers can design and deliver services that account for the diverse needs of students, reflecting the importance of collaboration and co-creation with the student community. Drawing on the Student Needs Framework, the discussion examines how to identify and respond to varying student populations, group characteristics, and individual needs. The session also explores transitions into higher education, where tailored approaches can have the most significant impact.
Join us to gain a deeper understanding of how to foster meaningful partnerships with students to ensure that services are inclusive, relevant, and effective. This session is designed to enable discourse and shared understanding about how existing and relevant strategies, resources and frameworks can be utilised to enhance student support through collaboration and a shared commitment to student success.
