Internationalising higher education: framework for action.

The Higher Education Academy (HEA) invites you to help shape this draft strategic framework. The framework has been designed to inspire and assist the sector, to address the need for national guidance in the UK.

The proposed text for the framework is offered to incite dialogue and discussion. We invite feedback on all aspects of the framework including the underpinning aspirations, content and the language used. It is intended to be relevant to multiple audiences. We therefore welcome contributions to this consultation from anyone with an interest or involvement in the process of internationalising higher education.

We wish to ensure that the final version of the framework is as appropriate and helpful for the sector as possible. The draft text for the framework provides background information on why and how the framework has been developed and explains why and how we are consulting with the sector at this stage.

To access the consultation survey, please follow the link to the survey. The link will be open until 7 May 2014 and the revised version of the framework will be launched at the HEA’s Annual Conference (2-3 July 2014, Birmingham). If you would like further information regarding this consultation document or consultation process, please email internationalisation@heacademy.ac.uk We look forward to receiving your feedback on this draft framework.
