Issues facing the higher education sector

Higher education institutions are facing increased competition from overseas, the private sector and other education institutions. There are increased financial pressures and changes in the relationship with staff and students.

How we can help

We can help with all the issues higher education institutions face. Recent projects include:

  • helping universities set up their overseas operations
  • funding deals
  • VAT and tax issues
  • restructuring charter and statutes
  • creation of group structures
  • joint ventures with the private sector
  • groupings with colleges and academies.

As well as working with higher education institutions we work with a number of sector bodies in the HE sector and are regularly asked to speak at sector conferences and events. Recently we have:

  • developed international guides with UUK and also AoC
  • delivered sessions at annual conferences of AHUA, AMHEC, ARC, ASRA and UHR
  • spoken at Stetson and NACUA conferences in the USA
