A new 'University Challenge': consultation events

We held four events in September about our consultation on the new 'University Challenge'. The events set out the approach we are taking to support the development of new higher education centres in the light of the Government's policy framework, including information about assembling evidence for new HE centres.

All events followed the same themes and format, including:

  • a presentation from HEFCE representatives
  • a contribution from regional development agencies
  • questions and informal discussion.
