STEP was formed in late Autumn 2024 and is the new collaborative programme that will support Scotland’s tertiary sector to innovate in quality enhancement. It is designed to enable Scotland’s colleges and universities to work together to improve and enhance learning, teaching, the student experience and staff development across tertiary provision.
The STEP Steering Group has representation from across the sector with Prof Brewer acting as Universities Scotland topic expert on Further Education articulations. He will also co-chair the steering group (as universities lead) which will give strategic leadership and direction for the successful delivery of STEP.
Prof Nick Brewer said, “I am delighted to be part of this initiative as a member and co-chair of the steering group. There is a lot of work ahead but a real opportunity to make a significant impact on the quality of tertiary education in Scotland.”
