Transition Skills and Strategies
A set of downloadable resources to support staff and students develop skills essential for successful transitions.
This Enhancement Theme explored the transitions of students into, through and out of study at university. During the three years of the Theme (2014 – 17) we completed a range of institution work and sector-wide projects. We also evaluated the work carried out during the Theme and again at the end of the Theme and published reports on the findings.
sector-wide projects

Student Transitions Map
A separate website where you can browse a large collection of resources, relating to the student journey.
Inter-institutional collaboration
Three projects focused on student skills development and the use of technology and online resources.
Other Resources
In year two of the Theme, we commissioned work into the experience and needs of international students and produced a report on the findings.
