09:15 to 12:30 Our conference brings together leading practitioners from across the sector to explore over four themed days practical solutions to improve access, participation and success for students from underrepresented and disadvantaged groups. We offer a mix of keynote presentations, 1-hour workshops, 30-minute seminars, 10-minute lightning talks, posters and panel discussions.
The Conference is organised by Access, Participation and Success at The Open University. To contact the team please email: access-participation-success@open.ac.uk
