From the presenter:

A common challenge: student engagement.

In this session, we'll present the current state of student engagement; How's it measured? What are the key drivers? Why is it strategically important to all student organisations? What are the challenges?

Once we've aligned on the lay of the land, we'll get into spotlighting the successful initiatives bringing once disengaged groups into the fold of university life, before workshopping what more can be done to deliver sector wide success.

Things you'll take away

- Attendees will have an idea of how engaged students at their SU are relative other SUs

- Attendees will have a practical understanding of how data can be utilised to better understand their student population and therefore better engage students

- Attendees will take away inspiration for how to drive student engagement, thanks to success stories studies from the likes of Sheffield Hallam as well as workshops focused on problem solving!
