Introducing Key Information Sets Professor Janet Beer Chair of the Higher Education Public Information Steering Group

Origins of the KIS General dissatisfaction with information provision for prospective students and other users Key recommendation of the Oakleigh Consulting and Staffordshire University Research Identified information that prospective students found useful:  course, costs & employability Identified where students look for information:  HEI websites and UCAS

Proposed features of the KIS One KIS for every undergraduate course (a course being something a student applies to) All HE courses longer than one year FTE Published on institution’s web-sites and accessible via UCAS Data renewed once a year Will be part of QA review

Levels of information on the KIS: Institutional Level Subject Level Course Level Accommodation costs Students’ union data Student satisfaction (NSS) Employment and salary (DLHE) Learning & teaching methods Assessment methods Professional accreditation Student fees/bursaries/scholarships

Who provides the information: HEFCE: NSS for course satisfaction HESA: DLHE for employability Institutions: course information, accommodation & fees/bursaries and scholarships NUS: students’ union

Key Information Sets Data from: HESA HEFCE Institutions NUS Anyone else? Creating the KIS UCAS

Data provided by institutions: Five information areas needed from institutions Do not currently exist in easily comparable and standardised formats Expert Working Groups have proposed what information should be collected: – Realistic for institutions to collect – Meets the needs of users Recommendations piloted by seven institutions

Moving forward HEPSIG to consider outcomes from consultation and KIS development work - KIS mock up already out of date UUK and HEFCE Boards, GuildHE Exec in May Outcomes circular released Summer Key information Sets in place September 2012 information will become subject to QAA judgement
