Who can join?

Our success relies on the active participation across the sector.

If you work in an administrative, legal, compliance, or related function at a UK higher education institution or independent research organisation, we invite you to join our network.

Membership is currently practitioner-focused. However, we recognise that meaningful engagement with the academic community will be important to our long-term success, and we will seek to involve academic colleagues where their expertise is critical to advancing our shared objectives.
