Who Can Join HEDG

HEDG membership is open to Higher Education Institutions across the UK that share the Association’s aims and purpose. Each member institution appoints one nominated representative, with a substitute able to attend meetings when needed. In most cases, this representative is the colleague with cross-institutional responsibility for educational development, helping to bring strategic insight and sector experience into the network.
