Keynote 2


Defining excellence by partnership and not value, in a post marketised HE landscape

Sayed Alkadiri Former Vice President (2015-16)
Middlesex University Students' Union


Now more than ever with the introduction of fees students are treated as consumers, and behave as consumers … it is my premise that this is wrong, and that just because you pay for something doesn’t mean you should expect a value which is monetary. In this session we will explore what partnership really means, why it is both more difficult and more important than ever and how can we use it to put MDX at the cutting edge of learning and teaching.
