2. Best practice sharing discussion: student ambassador schemes in 2020-21
The disruption to widening participation work caused by covid-19 has had a knock-on effect on student ambassador schemes. The forum will hear from colleagues running schemes this year about how they have adapted their approach to overcome logistical challenges and where this has proved successful. Areas of focus include:
-
- Recruitment and training of ambassadors
- Provision of work opportunities
- Day-to-day management of schemes
- 3. Employer engagement and supporting ambassadors with progression into graduate employment
Forum members to brainstorm pan-London employability initiatives that could be delivered in place of the planned AccessHE Student Ambassador Conference. - 4. Forum priorities for the year ahead
Members to discuss and share suggestions for themes to be addressed in 2020-21. - 5. Any other business
