Amended ASYE guidance and templates
As a result of the consultation that took place in 2023, some of the ASYE guidance and templates have been amended. ASYE leads/co-ordinators have been made aware of this and were given the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the changes before they went live.
The amended guidance and templates are on our ASYE templates page.
ASYE drop-in sessions
Bookings are now open for the drop-in sessions which are for ASYE leads/co-ordinators. We operate on a ‘open door’ basis, you can join whenever you want to and stay for as long as you want to. It’s a space to ask anything you’d like clarification on about the ASYE programme, or you can just listen to what other people are asking and discussing.
The next session is on Tuesday 9 April, 10:00-12:00.
Visit our ASYE event, forums and networks page to book and see the dates for the rest of the year.
