The Merseyside Higher Education Conference 2012, in association with UCAS and supported by HELOA will take place on Wednesday 13th and Thursday 14th June at the University of Liverpool.
Online booking for schools and colleges is now open at www.ucas.com/conventions
It will close on 31.5.12 or earlier if the Conference is fully booked
In 2011 the Conference was once again booked to its full capacity of 6,000 students on each of the two days.
Visitors will be able to speak to 116 exhibitors - mainly universities, but with some employers too - and attend up to 4 of the 49 seminar talks.
Every year we survey the views of the visiting universities and in 2011 In answer to the question ‘Were the students well prepared?’ many university delegates responded with comments such as:
- ‘It was great to see students had prepared for the event’ (Blackpool and the Flyde College)
- The students asked ‘lots of good questions’ (University of Cambridge)
- ‘Yes, probably one of the best events for this.’ (University of Sheffield)
Delegates had kind words too about the organisation and delivery of the event. Swansea University said it had been ‘superb’ while a first time visitor from the University of New Brunswick in Canada wrote’ everyone has been kind, helpful and lovely. Just please invite me again next year.’
