Monday 20 – Friday 20 May, 2019
The staff exchange event is intended for professional staff working in the field of student support and administration, particularly those responding to the needs of international exchange students.
During the week we will showcase services and initiatives which have been developed at Sheffield Hallam University to respond to a growing number of international students, exchange students and study abroad students. Participants are expected to share their experiences and practice of supporting international exchange students so we can all learn from each other’s work.
We will cover a wide range of areas including
- Accommodation
- Student Wellbeing
- Student welcome and orientation
- Social transitions support
- Library & study support
- Dealing with crises and hardship
The full programme is available here
