Sessions
Pride in Professional Services
The work that our professional services community does can often go unrecognised, but it is this ‘under the hood’ activity that enables everything else to work and function across the university.
To open the conference, representatives from five of our professional services teams presented their recent achievements including:
- Graduations 2022
- Communities of Practice (CoPs): Bringing people together
- Supporting staff and students in Ukraine
- Technical staff contribution to UCL Research
- Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021
