Our areas of work
Enhancing teaching and learning for student and institutional success
Across the globe, enhancements to the student learning experience have been both disrupted and accelerated by the pandemic. The pivot to hybrid and flexible
learning, along with the growth in artificial intelligence and the information revolution continue to create unprecedented drivers for change. Drawing on our connections around the world we will support individuals, institutions and country systems to provide flexible, high quality, digitally-enabled student experiences that prepare learners for success as constructive contributors to the future world.

Transforming leadership for a new world
Changing geo-political forces, adapting to a post-Covid world, increasing competition and the need to build new relationships all call for a different kind of leadership that builds and sustains inclusion. Confident, capable leaders adapt, grow and diversify their talents, their teams and their institutions to respond to future challenges. We will create pathways to leadership that build a more diverse pool of leaders and enhance the skills and cultural competence of existing and future leaders.
Driving progress in equality, diversity and inclusion
We want to support your institution to rise to the challenges you face and create places of learning and employment that welcome diversity, nurture talent and create sustainable change. We can help you remove barriers to education, employment and success, so that higher education can reach its full potential, and your staff and students can benefit equally from the opportunities it affords.
Evolving higher education governance
Good governance is critical to delivering impactful HE and confidence and trust for stakeholders. Yet we know that understanding what is effective in your context is needed more than ever to navigate turbulence and be fit for the future. We build on our unparalleled track record of supporting and developing governors, governance professionals, institutions and systems of governance across the world to support boards to lead successful institutions.

There is now a culture of teaching at Walailak University. Before this work, staff did not talk about teaching, whereas now you can hear them discussing their teaching in everyday conversations. Student learning is at the heart of all our work.”Associate Professor Dr. Surin Maisrikrod, Vice President for Global Engagement and Faculty Development, Walailak University, Thailand.
How we work with you
We are sector-owned, and HE is our world. Advance HE delivers lasting value in HE by providing the expertise and evidence-based insights to sector challenges. We help to build capacity and capability to improve performance for organisations, teams and individuals, and tailor our solutions to meet your priorities and those of the wider sector.
We understand that no two institutions are the same and that is why we use a
partnership approach to our consultancy and enhancement service to understand your challenges and develop interventions tailored to your context and goals.
The delivery of our consultancy and enhancement service follows a four-step process, designed to implement a cycle of continuous improvement.
Collaborative projects
Projects are cost effective and delivered as a focused period of activity – usually six months. They are grounded in sharing excellent practice, developing innovative approaches and assessing the impact of change.
Institutions involved in the collaborative projects benefit from focused support on key issues, a safe space to share challenges and build networks of support and implement meaningful change.
Collaborative projects currently open include:
In-house development programmes and training
Designed, developed and delivered for your institution
We offer a suite of programmes and training solutions that can be designed to meet your organisation’s requirements, developed in partnership with you and delivered to meet your requirements.
For over the last 15 years we have worked with institutions and organisations all over the world to build and deliver effective programmes and training to address the challenges that they face or enhance their operations.
Our programmes develop leaders equipped to address some of the key challenges facing institutions, enhance the teaching and learning capability and tackle the method by which your institution addresses equality, diversity and inclusivity at all levels.

Advance HE has a number of services which help promote Fellowship and support your staff through their applications.
