Uncovering Skills report
Released in October, the new Uncovering Skills report explores how those working across UK higher education support students to uncover, recognise, and articulate the skills they develop throughout their academic and personal journeys. Read the HEPI blog post summarising the key findings or read the full report. See also the UoS Embedding Employability and Entrepreneurship Toolkit.
GenAI Training
The next set of JISC AI literacy curriculum for teaching and learning live sessions are running from January to April 2026. Sussex is a JISC member, therefore these are free to our staff.
All sessions are delivered online via Microsoft Teams, last around one hour, and each session runs twice on different dates. Sessions are booked individually, and full details and booking are available on the Jisc training page.
