An EAN Access and Admissions Forum event

This webinar will explore the regulations around access and what works. We welcome two of the leading figures in student access, John Blake and Omar Khan. Think fireside chat as a taster for the 2023 Access and Admissions Forum. To whet your appetite for the main event, the EPC is hosting two pre-event webinars to introduce the key topics. For information, come along to our webinars. For interaction, networking and deep dive discussion, join us in person at at City University, London on Tuesday 12th December. We hope many of you will attend all three sessions. You can book on this webinar below, and on LLE and T level pathways to Engineering here. The webinars are free to members. Non-members should book a place at the in-person forum in London on 12th December to reserve a place on either webinar.

Join us for a fireside chat with John Blake, Director of Fair Access and Participation at the OfS to discuss equality of opportunity in higher education.

Have you thought about the intersection between access risks that an engineering department faces with the risks identified in the Equality of Opportunity Risk Register? Is there a higher requirement for contextualisation in engineering? Do APP’s capture the outreach conducted by an engineering department? How do we measure and assess this input?

This is the second webinar to introduce the Access and Admissions Forum on the 12th December at City, University of London.

29th November @ 1pm

Chair: Georgina Harris, Dean of STEM, Arden University

Speakers: John Blake, Director of Access and Participation, Office for Students (OfS)

Dr Omar Khan, Chief Executive of TASO

The webinar will last 1 hour and 30 minutes.
