Activities to improve retention and success of HE students Sample Clauses

Activities to improve retention and success of HE students. These activities will raise aspirations for achievement, promote awareness of the world of work and the skills needed in employment and improve retention. Particular focus for these support activities will be students from under-represented groups who will be identified using POLAR3 data on entry. Typical activities will include:  The continuation of a peer mentorship scheme in which a final year HE student from each programme will be appointed to offer on course support to those on lower years. This student mentor will create a linkage between students on differing years of the programme and will offer advice and guidance about progression as well as encouraging a programme identity through the management of social activities.  The continuation of a Business Incubator Unit to support learners wishing to develop their own SME in the final year of study or on graduating. Learners would be supported in finding suitable subsidised accommodation, offered advice and guidance on the requirements of self-employment and be offered access to academic members of staff to mentor them through the initial phases of the business set up. This initiative is intended to offer opportunity to the wide range of College students from under-represented groups who currently have limited access to this type of venture.  The continuation of a skills unit in the HE centre to support learners’ development particularly in the early stages of their study from under-represented groups.  The continuation of support for a HE sabbatical officer, a HE undergraduate support advisor and careers advisor to support learners on programme and in their progression to employment.
