Action on Access in its new 2012 role is developing a national network of AonA Associates building a strong collective network of colleagues from all sections of the HE access and widening participation community to work together, drawing on and harnessing the enormous expertise that has been established. Action on Access has the experience to do this.
The Network aims will develop over time but areas where the network will make a contribution, and which has been highlighted to us by HEIs, colleges, stakeholder groups and many others, include:
- Sharing good practice and knowledge exchange
- Providing networking opportunities
- Contributing to an understanding of national and sector issues
- Identifying staff development needs/providing CPD
- Influencing policy development
- Participating in development and consultancy projects
- Building an effective electronic platform
This network will be of great value both in its own right but also as a national resource that can work to shape and take forward the changing agenda for HE.
