European First Year Experience Conference 2019
EFYE2019 takes place in Cork Institute of Technology on June 17, 18 and 19 June 2019.
The annual EFYE conference is planned by the EFYE Network, a group of academics and support staff from across Europe who are interested in improving the experience of students as they enter and progress through higher education. The EFYE conference is a great opportunity for participants to expand their theoretical knowledge, to hear and learn about best practice, to get inspired from examples that see real results and to expand their network. This marks the first time the EFYE conference comes to Ireland. The theme of EFYE2019 is A Good Start is Half the Work. The National Forum is a proud sponsor of this conference.
The National Forum will facilitate two conference workshops ‘Using Data to Support Student Transitions into the First Year: Explore How Learning Analytics & Big Data can be Integrated into Real World Practices’ and ‘10 things we Learnt about Transitions into/through Higher Education in Ireland’ and is leading a post conference event ‘National Think Tank on Student Success in Higher Education’. This post conference event is led by the National Forum, in partnership with CIT, with international expert input from the board of EFYE and the conference keynote speakers.
