Academic Policy and Regulations (APR)

Digital Transformation
With digital teaching excellence and the creation of outstanding student learning experiences at the heart of the operations of the Digital Transformation workstream in SLAR, we are pivotal in shaping and supporting the institution in innovative approaches to digital learning and delivery.
Academic Collaborative Innovation (ACI)
The Academic Collaborative Innovation workstream provides a project-based working methodology across Student Learning & Academic Registry (SLAR). It leads on nurturing excellence through its Professional Development Framework supporting and promoting external recognition and the promotional pathways around learning and teaching.
Student Learning
The new Student Learning workstream will:
- Deliver high-impact, data-driven interventions for individual students at most risk of disengagement
- Shape and implement an Academic Service Excellence Standard to significantly enhance the student experience of organisation, management and communication at course level
Through these means, the new function will deliver a step change in student experience across the University, and generate measurable outcomes against institutional KPIs.
