About the Event

CISG-PCMG22 - New solutions for a new world

How staff and students look at their university or college has changed; as the sector adapts to the massive disruption and rapid uptake of digital technologies dictated by events of the last few years, the perspective will shift again.

Many institutions are still rolling out, configuring provision and looking to embed best practice for systems and services delivered years ahead of intended timelines. The agility of the sector in adapting to user needs has been remarkable and has resulted in a more digitally empowered education landscape than ever before.

However, individually, institutionally and as a wider community there is a need to not only make sense of these exciting new solutions, but to connect, secure and support them and ensure effective interoperation across hybrid environments. This is of particular importance, with dispersed user groups and stakeholders having high expectations from this brave new world of work, learning and research.

Digital provision and capability and access to quality tools and services has never been better, but how can institutions ensure that user experience is equally good? Operating in a competitive sector with significant challenges to service delivery, finance and governance, many institutions are looking to digital technologies for solutions and new opportunities – particularly in improving and personalising the user’s experiences.  

CISG-PCMG22 conference will explore how the sector is bringing pioneering solutions and services together to deliver new solutions for a new world for staff and students.

UCISA CISG-PCMG22 will feature a mix of presentations, workshops and updates from the sector. There will also be opportunities to engage with our suppliers and explore the ways they can innovate and support our new working world.

The Conference Co-Chairs, Sally Jorjani (University of Stirling) and Patrick Daly (Robert Gordon University) welcome you to this year’s Conference and we hope you will find the Conference a good opportunity to learn from your community as they share their good practice and take the opportunity to meet new contacts, extend your network and to engage with suppliers. We look forward to seeing you in Brighton!
