Other sector associations
We work with other sector associations as much as possible to reduce duplication and to drive collaboration and healthy cross-departmental working. Here is a list of all the associations we are aware of in HE. If you know of any others, please get in touch.
There are also lots of acronyms in the sector, so we have compiled a useful list.
