The REACH Events Scholarship was set up by Robert Kenward and Gabrielle Austen-Browne FRSA (she/her) after they discovered that 40% of Event Management Degree students drop out due to the £5k per year cost of living expenses on top of everything else. Of this number, 92% were from a Black, Asian or unpresented minority background!!! Every survey over the last few years has shown the #eventprofs #meetingprofs #experientialmarketing sector is 80-90% white. Most of the respondents were London based where the UK split is 50/50. You do the maths. The scholarship aims to change this number. Last week the team attended the The Manchester Metropolitan University UK House of Lords celebration of philanthropy and thanks to people in the pictures like Andrew Orr Harriet Bullen TRO Dale Parmenter DRPG Sophia McNeill MInstF(Cert) Marie Kuffour and many others, we're making real change. This year we're working with Bournemouth University and if you're a company looking to instigate real #EDI change in our sector, please get in touch with one of our co-founders. You have the power to change the future. gabby@diversityalliance.co.uk robert@recruitmentprof.com

We invite you to join the second Erasmus Salon, which will continue a series of events organised by the European University Foundation, the European Students Union, and the Erasmus Student Network, focusing on the recognition of learning periods abroad. 🗺️ The event will take place at the ESN/EUF Office in 📍Rue Joseph II 120 from 18:00 to 20:00 on the 2nd of May, with an informal after-work format and some food and drinks provided by the organisers. In this second Erasmus Salon, we will delve into a crucial theme in learning mobility - Recognition of Learning Periods Aboards. The findings from the XV ESNsurvey reveal that recognition of credit mobility stands as one of the most significant challenges confronting students today. 👨🎓📝The theme of this Erasmus Saloon could not come at a more key time with the launch of the Proposal for a Council Recommendation on a European quality assurance and recognition system in higher education, following the ambitious proposal of the European Degree blueprint. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dDNwgAkj
