HR Immigration network meeting

The next UCEA HR Immigration network meeting has been arranged as an online meeting using Skype for Business on Tuesday 14 July.
The meeting will commence at 11.00 am and will run for approximately an hour, finishing no later than 12.30 pm.

The meeting is now fully booked, join the waiting list by emailing events@ucea.ac.uk 

Agenda

The agenda is still being finalised but is likely to include the following:
  • Current immigration guidance/concessions due to the coronavirus pandemic – key learning points and discussion
  • Responses to the MAC on the shortage occupation list
  • Preparations for the new PBS
Confirmed speakers are:
  • Harry Anderson – Policy Manager, Universities UK
  • Stephen Longson – Immigration Manager at UK SBS
  • Tim Currie – Staff Immigration Officer, University of Oxford
The aim of these meetings is to be as interactive and practical as possible – discussing or seeking support on issues affecting immigration in HEIs. As such, please do contact Alison McGrand (a.mcgrand@ucea.ac.uk) with suggestions for:
  • Issues to discuss or seek feedback on from other IHRN members
  • Examples of work that you have done that you would like to share with IHRN members.                                                  

Joining the network meeting

To participate in the meeting you will need a laptop, tablet or telephone. If your HEI has an existing account with Skype for Business then you can join the meeting via the App.
Alternatively, you may be able to join via your web browser (i.e. Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge or Safari), or via phone (audio only). 

Attendance fee and how to book

Prior to lockdown UCEA responded to members’ requests for an opportunity to participate remotely in our network meetings by offering a ‘hybrid’ Clinical Academic HR network meeting with some participants attending in person and some participating remotely. The same participation fee applied to participants who joined us in either way to cover the costs of arranging and supporting these meetings. This hybrid approach worked well for the meeting in March and we plan to continue that model for all UCEA network meetings when face to face meetings are possible again.

In light of the fact that the next IHRN meeting is slightly shorter in addition to being fully remote, we will offer this at a temporarily reduced participation fee of £25.
 
When you book you have the option of paying for a place by credit/debit card or to be invoiced.

When booking a place, you now have the option of paying online by credit card (note our online booking system indicates the ticket as £25).  
You can of course be invoiced for the £25 attendance fee (note our online booking system indicates the invoice ticket as £0, you will be invoiced for £25).  

The meeting is now fully booked, join the waiting list by emailing events@ucea.ac.uk
