Review of Supporting Professionalism in Admissions (SPA) - deadline for survey responses extended

We have commissioned an independent review of SPA.

Posted Wed 17 December 2014
As mentioned in our earlier bulletins, we have commissioned an independent review of SPA, with Aim Higher Research Consultancy (ARC) Network and Dr Anna Mountford-Zimdars leading on this project.  

The online survey for HE providers (which launched earlier this month) forms an integral part of the study. To ensure all providers have time to contribute their views at this busy time of year, the deadline for responses has been extended to Friday 9 January 2015. The survey, which should take no longer than 20 minutes to complete, is open to staff working across the full breadth of the HE sector, including universities, FE colleges, specialist providers and private universities. The survey is relevant not only to those directly involved in admissions, but also to colleagues in related roles and senior managers involved in setting the strategic direction of the institution. Feedback is welcomed from current or previous users of the SPA programme, as well as those without experience of working with SPA. 

The outcomes of the review will influence the future direction of the SPA programme and so it is vital that the decisions taken are informed by your views. Please forward this link to colleagues and contribute your opinions now!
