Teachers’ and Careers Advisers’ Conference

Preparing your students for success

We are delighted to invite you to our annual Teachers and Careers Advisers Conference. This free, one day event organised by the Student Recruitment Team, will update you on the changing HE landscape and will give you the opportunity to share experiences and good practice with colleagues who provide post-16 information, advice and guidance (IAG) across a broad range of school and college settings.

The conference is aimed at all teachers and careers advisers working in post-16 education. Professionals and practitioners in the HE sector will be available through plenary and workshop sessions to equip you with up-to-date, essential information to inform your own practice.

In addition to a keynote, plenary and networking lunch, delegates will have the opportunity to select two workshops of interest, undertake an optional campus or departmental tour and speak to subject tutors and other services from across the University. The programme will provide attendees with a mix of subject specific guidance, as well as general policy update. Sessions will be delivered by staff from Edge Hill University, in addition to external specialists, who each demonstrate expertise within their chosen fields.

The 2023 Teachers’ and Careers Advisers’ Conference hosted a variety of keynote speeches and workshops including University League Tables: how to use them and what they show, Supporting children and young people’s mental health in schools and colleges and in their transition to university, Supporting your students through their UCAS application and Student Finance. Talks and workshops are given by members of the Student Recruitment Team and external professionals from the HE sector.

Bookings will open and the programme will be able to view in early 2024.
