About the event

#HEDataMatters17     #M5Group

Drawing upon the combined expertise of HESA, Jisc and QAA (the M5 group), this event will bring together data, digital and quality experts and practitioners from across the higher education sector to discuss the topical issues around data and its use. A wide range of plenaries and workshops will explore:

• Effective use of HE data in the evolving landscape
• How data can help you to improve student experience
• Preservation of the quality of UK HE provision with data-led regulation
• Data and digital capabilities of the sector
• What data can teach you?

This one day conference aims to increase your knowledge, efficiency and data capabilities to enable you to move forward confidently in the data driven higher education landscape. It will be an opportunity to foster important dialogue between data practitioners, quality professionals and digital service specialists and a chance to enhance collaborative opportunities within your institution and external networks. This is a day not to be missed if you would like to find out how you can make the best of your data and convey the story it tells.
