Guidance and support for teaching & careers staff

We regularly arrange campus visits for careers advisers and teachers as well speaking at conferences and visiting schools, colleges and offices to provide in-service training.

We are happy to update visitors on new developments at the University and in Higher Education in general, or to provide introductory information for staff new to Higher Education guidance and the UCAS process.

We frequently visit schools to run workshops with careers staff on:

• the UCAS system
• applying to competitive institutions and subjects
• the personal statement
• reference writing

We will also be hosting Teachers and Advisers Conferences in 2017.

E-newsletter for teachers and advisers

We produce a once-per term teachers and advisers email newsletter, 'The Edinburgh Insight', providing helpful information to assist you in your role, important University updates, and details of events which may be of interest to you and your students. Information about upcoming conferences for teachers and advisers will be sent out via this newsletter.
