Skill's Information and Policy Networks for Providers of Higher Education are forums for sharing good practice, networking and discussing issues arising from working with disabled students. Skill is looking to re-establish the network in London and the South East. At a meeting of the London DSA Forum yesterday, a number of HEI staff expressed an interest in the Network being re-established and suggested that the date for the first meeting should be in late January / early February 2008. If you work at an HEI in London or the South East and would be interested in attending network meetings, please let Alice at Skill know. The meetings would be held at institutions on a rotating basis - if you might be able to hold the first meeting at your institution, please let Alice know. When confirmed, the time, date, location and agenda for the network meeting will be posted on dis-forum. Please email Alice with suggestions for agenda items. The agenda is likely to include issues around centralisation of the Student Loans Company and DSA. Details of the other regional networks are available on Skill's website http://www.skill.org.uk/page.aspx?c=62&p=151 Alice Pennington Senior Policy Officer Skill: National Bureau for Students with Disabilities Direct line: 020 7450 0641 (voice) Chapter House, 18-20 Crucifix Lane, London, SE1 3JW Main line: 020 7450 0620 (voice / text) Fax: 020 7450 0650 Information Service: 0800 328 5050 (voice) 0800 068 2422 (text) Email: [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> Website: www.skill.org.uk <http://www.skill.org.uk> Tuesday 11.30am-1.30pm Thursday 1.30-3.30pm Skill is a registered charity no. 801971 and a company limited by guarantee no. 2397897 Promoting opportunities for young people and adults with any kind of impairment in post-16 education, training and employment Skill is national charity committed to providing a free information service.
