Introduction:

HELOA works in partnership with a range of Associations, Organisations, Statutory Bodies and Government to support effective information, advice and guidance for those making their Higher Education choices. Following a wide scale partnership review during 2010, the Association is fostering a range of partnerships on a national level. Our 800 strong membership provide a critical ear for policy and decision makers, and our members are engaged in a range of national discussion groups. The Association has regular communication with key Organisations that impact on our work and help facilitate this dialogue across the sector. Staff representing HELOA are often asked to speak at national conferences - see our Press and Publicity section for details of upcoming events. At a local level, the 9 HELOA Groups each have a role responsible for Partnerships and have developed a range of effective partnerships over many years to mutual benefit. Our Groups would be happy to talk to you if you would like more detail.

If you would like to find out more about HELOA Partnerships at national level please get in touch.
