What can universities across the globe learn from each other to reduce the likelihood of students dropping out before they finish their studies?
In this webinar, experts from Campus+ partner institutions in the UK, Canada and the US explore student persistence and completion, and how interventions can go beyond individuals and programmes to support student success. The panellists share insight and advice around communication, processes and technology, as well as how to support mature students, what a joined-up approach to retention looks like and the role of belonging in attainment.
Our panellists are:
- Catherine Wehlburg is president of Athens State University. She is known nationally for her scholarly and practical administrative work in teaching and learning and the assessment of learning outcomes.
- Jessica Meith is director of student success management at Florida Atlantic University. She is responsible for a broad range of administrative functions to foster and support student success.
- Nicky King is associate pro vice-chancellor for education in the Faculty of Environment, Science and Economy at the University of Exeter. With interests in widening access, student success and student support, she recently led the university’s transformation of academic student support.
