Dear all
Just a reminder that, although we always try and
accommodate last minute bookings, it is really helpful if you would book/reserve
a place on any HEEON events you are interested in as soon as possible to enable
us to accurately estimate numbers and help keep conference costs
down.
The events for this year are:
‘Progressing the Gender
Agenda’ (Programme below)
Monday 28th January, 2008, UUK, Woburn House,
London, WC1H 9HQ (10-4) http://www.woburnhouse.co.uk/location/
'Promoting
Good Campus Relations - an Institutional Approach'
Friday 14th March, 2008 at
UUK, Woburn House, 20 Tavistock Square, London, WC1H 9HZ (10-4) http://www.woburnhouse.co.uk/location/
This
training day is being held in conjunction with the AUA and ECU and is supported
by UUK, Unison and UCU.

multi-dimensional approach’

Scarman Training and Conference Centre, The University of Warwick, CV4 7AL http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/conferences/aboutus/gettinghere/

I hope to see you at one
of the events.
Kind regards
Michele
