The Step Into Series, which sets a benchmark for inclusive, collaborative, and student-responsive advising, offering clear evidence of transformative impact for students across Queen’s.
The creation of the Advisors of Studies Community of Practice (CoP), which has reshaped the advising culture towards proactive, relational, and student-centred support.
Strong evidence of reach, value, and impact, with student voices central to shaping resources and advising practice, leading to meaningful improvements in the student experience.
Evidence of wider sector recognition, with your work standing as a model of excellence in student advising that could be scaled both across Queen’s and beyond.

Your work directly supports the ambitions of Strategy 2030, particularly in transforming the student experience and fostering a culture of belonging and support. The panel commended the way your initiatives combine inclusivity, collaboration, and innovation to set new standards for student advising.
