Higher Education Conference
The 2009 Merseyside Higher Education Conference took place at the University of Liverpool on Thursday and Friday 18th-19th June.
The organisers – Greater Merseyside Connexions and Connexions Cheshire and Warrington –
were delighted that over 11,000 students from 93 schools and colleges from across Greater Merseyside,
Cheshire and from as far away as Anglesey and Shropshire attended the conference.
This was a record attendance over the two days.
In 2009 it was noticeable that a significant number of parents/carers and mature students attended.
While there, the students had the chance to speak to one of the 119 exhibitors or attend up to 4 of the 44 talks
on finding funding for; applying to; and studying at university.
The organisers heartily thanked all the speakers who freely gave their time to deliver these talks.
From the student evaluation forms returned 95% said they thought the venue was excellent or good;
while 85% thought the event programme was either excellent or good.
The vast majority found the event useful in their planning of applications to Higher Education.
The Confirmed dates for the 2010 event are Wednesday 16th and Thursday 17th June.
The venue is University of Liverpool
