Events

AMHEC prides itself on providing excellent networking and development opportunities through its annual Conference and Workshop.  Our conference is held around Easter with topics of current interest and speakers from sector organisations as well as experts and professionals from outside higher education.  Our workshop is held in September/October which is designed to be highly interactive with plenty of opportunity to discuss current issues and share practice with colleagues in the sector.

AMHEC 2020 Conference

Student and staff engagement are emergent themes in higher education, and is seen as an essential requirement for effective learning, and providing staff with the right conditions to stay committed and motivated to the institution’s goals and values.  However, student and staff engagement has proved challenging with the pressures from the internal and external environments.  We need to look for clarity in our expressions, approaches, strategies and models to ensure we can thrive, and provide benefits for all.The AMHEC 2020 conference will explore the challenges faced by the sector in staff and student engagement, and how our institutions by asking more challenging questions about the degrees, types and platforms of engagement can enhance the learning and working-life experience.

With speakers from within and external to the sector the 2020 conference is a must for your professional calendar.

AMHEC prides itself on encouraging open and honest dialogue between members, so as ever there will be plenty of opportunity to network with colleagues. With such a vast range of expertise in the room this is always much value to be derived by attendees. 

The annual conference is the highlight of the year for AMHEC and this year promises to be no different.

AMHEC 2019 Conference

Never before has the sustainability of Higher Education Providers been so relevant.

With the recommendations of the post 18 education and funding review imminent (and rumours abound), competition for students (and staff) being greater than ever, Brexit looming and pension costs rising, we need to take a hard look at ourselves, our strategies, approaches and models to ensure we can survive and thrive in the new environment. The AMHEC 2019 conference will explore the sector’s challenges and in particular consider how our institutions might use and leverage new digital capabilities to stay relevant and differentiate ourselves.

Institutional performance and the student experience - time for revolution or evolution

In a year in which we have seen substantial change to our sector and national landscape, with the higher education White Paper, TEF, Higher Education & Research Bill and Brexit, to name just a few, how are we as institutions rising to the challenge of demonstrating our value and quality?  With student applications substantially down across the sector and the alignment of institutional performance to tuition fees, never has it been more important to demonstrate excellence and stand out from replica watches the crowd.  The 2017 AMHEC conference will explore the challenges faced by the sector and by our own individual institutions and will challenge delegates to reflect on their University and whether incremental change and improvement is sustainable or whether something more revolutionary is called for.

With speakers from within and outside the sector, the 2017 conference is a must for your professional calendar.

2016 Annual AMHEC Conference

Put the date in your diary!

The Annual AMHEC Conference will take place at the University of Chester on Thursday and Friday 7th and 8th April 2016.

Panerai is certainly a frequently polarizing brand that has, lately, seen a massive spike in recognition and it has switched right into a somewhat household title in men's luxury timepieces. While SIHH saw numerous new models from Panerai, none were as intriguing since the panerai luminor chrono clone watches.These records layout enables the Regatta 72 hours to remain while using familiar Fake Panerai Luminor Chrono dial aesthetic while still offering a powerful look at the pass time getting an optimum method of calculating 12 hrs. This layout is fantastically elegant and taking advantage of color is just enough to produce the PAM00526 apart from their other chronograph models.
