Staff Personal Training and Development <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Continual professional development, training and knowledge exchange are recognised as one of the major benefits for staff, at both SHU and Partner organisations. Therefore, peer to peer knowledge exchange events, CPD conferences, community of interest forums and the annual conference are built into the partner relationship. Go to Staff Development<\/a> to see more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspirational Student Awards<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Inspirational Student Awards are a way to recognise our amazing students studying a SHU award at our UK partners, who have made a real difference to their fellow students, staff, local community, and beyond. It’s a way of celebrating those who have overcome adversity, inspired us, and made a real difference whilst being a student.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Partner conference <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The UK Educational Partner Conference takes place every two years at the SHU campus and brings all partners together to explore advancements in the sector and share best practice.  The conference is planned for the end of semester two and often falls in-line with Partners’ CPD delivery weeks.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
